Melaphyre outcrops with minerals in amygdules, melaphyre old abandoned quarry and also on the surrounding fields in the area between Mrówiniec - Suszyna - Niwa - Kamieniec, geodes filled with quartz, chalcedony, calcite and zeolites.
Ankerite occurs as pseudomorposes after aragonite. Crystals of aragonite are said to reach 5 cm. So is true for pale, reddish "heulandite", although this species is reported from melaphyre pebbles occurring between Kamieniec and Suszyna.
