EG70AH3: The most surprising of this group of equant Carletonite crystals is, for all that we know about the species, that they are so aerial and well defined, have a nice color and are so translucent and bright. But we also note the complexity of the paragenesis, with Feldspar, Calcite and Pectolite plus Arfvedsonite crystals.
The sample is from the type locality and it is with a label of a Canadian collection.
