Scapolite in Calcite with Epidote | South Africa Approx. Size: 3 x 2 in Weight: ~140 g A rare and highly distinctive specimen featuring violet scapolite crystals embedded in luminous white calcite with natural green epidote inclusions, sourced from South Africa. The sharply defined scapolite crystals display soft lavender tones and geometric structure, creating a striking contrast against the bright calcite matrix. Material combining scapolite with epidote is far less common than typical calcite mineral specimens, making pieces like this especially appealing to collectors seeking unusual mineral associations. The interplay of violet, white, and deep forest green gives this specimen a naturally artistic composition that feels both geological and sculptural. Scapolite is valued by mineral collectors for its unusual crystal habit and limited availability in high-quality matrix specimens. This example preserves multiple visible crystals within a stable natural formation, offering both visual interest and scientific character. Origin: South Africa Size: Approx. 3 x 2 inches Weight: ~140 grams Minerals: Scapolite, Calcite, Epidote Natural mineral specimen One-of-a-kind collector piece
