At the latest, low-temperature stage, calcite develops steep scalenohedra and overgrows stilbite or apophyllite. |
The most recent find was a spectacular nodular formation of green apophyllite on white petal-shaped stilbite, discovered last year. |
These include Nova Scotia's provincial mineral stilbite, as well as heulandite, analcime, chabazite, gmelinite, natrolite and thomsonite. |
First-generation crystals are rarely noted as minute orange-colored trapezohedra associated with the stratified layers of laumontite and stilbite, discussed below. |
In the cavities of such mixed rocks we often find calcedony, and crystals of mesotype, stilbite, and arragonite. |
This calcite typically overgrows quartz and crystallizes before heulandite, stilbite, and apophyllite. |
