Pumpellyite-(Mg): Ca2MgAl2(Si2O7)(SiO4)(OH)2·H2O; Quartz: SiO2; Calcite: CaCO3

Locality: O & G Southbury Quarry (Silliman Quarry; O & G No. 2 Quarry), Southbury, New Haven Co., Connecticut, USA

“Quartz crystals with "belts" of botryoidal, blue-green pumpellyite around the prism, and nearly black spheres (potentially ferrosaponite) as inclusions, with rhombic (pseudo cubic) calcite crystals. In a gas vesicle in black basalt. Dimensions: 10cm x 6.5cm x 6cm; Weight: 463g. Harold Moritz”

Quartz (Var: Amethyst), Pumpellyite

Locality:

Reed's Gap Quarry (New Haven Trap Rock quarry; Tilcon Durham quarry), Durham, Middlesex Co., Connecticut, USA

Very strange habit of quartz, like a reverse scepter, or a scepter that has a "collar" around it, not sure what went on here, but fun to photograph. Note the amethystine terminations, the dark pumpellyite globules, and in some pix the thin hematite "lines" along the edges of crystals
