Description

Very nice chabazite specimen from the notorious but only short lived finds at Schaan quarry. During reactivation a few years ago some really good finds were made, but collecting was heavily restricted and only possible with explicit permission. This is a legal sample. Nowadays there is a processing plant on the spot where these specimens were found so no more finds possible.
