A rare serandite associated with sodalite pseudomorph catapleiite, beautifully preserved and richly colored, showing the original crystal habits now fully replaced by sodalite. The specimen is further enhanced by tiny reddish mangan-neptunite crystals, adding strong contrast and locality character. A classic and highly desirable association from
Poudrette Quarry, one of the world’s most important alkaline mineral localities.
