Natrolite is a common and popular zeolite mineral. Its radiating sprays of ice clear acicular crystals are not exclusive to natrolite but they are a hallmark of this mineral. Natrolite can make a fine specimen in itself but it often is an accessory to other minerals and can enhance the beauty of associated minerals such as apophyllite, heulandite, benitoite and others. 4, record 1, English, - natrolite
