You can see a stereo view of this on: http://mysite.verizon.net/vzey5wva/alkaliseltzer/

Multiple photos availableAstrophyllite : (K,Na)3(Fe,Mn)7Ti2Si8O24(O,OH)7, Eudialyte Group, Microcline : K[AlSi3O8]

Demix-Varennes quarry, Saint-Amable sill, Varennes & St-Amable, Lajemmerais RCM, Montérégie, Québec, Canada

Self collected by Modris Baum. FOV 4.6 x 3.1 mm. Everything has an iridescent coating which is especially noticeable on the astrophyllite "book". The pink stuff (also coated) is probably plain eudialyte but it is known that a mineral similar to (but not the same as) UK116 of MSH is also found here.
The child photo is stereo.
