Description
Fengjiashan Mine (Daye Copper Mine), Daye County, Huangshi Prefecture, Hubei Province, China
The Daye Copper Mine is much more famous for its inesites and calcites, but it has also produced some great stilbite specimens, although at a low rate. This piece shows wet appearing sheaths of yellow to golden stilbites. They are nicely separated on the piece with tiny drusy type white crystals in between them.
