CAVANSITE2

I occasionally have seen a pair of blue Cavansite balls on matrix. They resemble eyes. This piece is the only one I've ever seen that has the eyes, then the Stilbite crystals have formed a nose and a mouth of the overall face! It is unmistakable. 

Cavansite is a recently discovered mineral. It was named after it's elements: Calcium, Vanadium, Silicate. It is found in India which I believe is the only location. 

No Damage.
