Celadonite included in Heulandite from Jalgaon, Maharashtra

Celadonite is a massive unattractive mineral. The only time one can get good specimens of this species is when it is included in Indian Zeolites, giving them a characteristic green color. In this case it is included in Heulandite, very esthetic, with a doubly terminated crystal, a floater, undamaged, and with more brilliance than is typical. Rare and beautiful.
