Description :
Thomsonite Egg Collection: Polished Zeolite Specimens from Lake Superior This set of twenty thomsonite eggs showcases the rare zeolite mineral in a polished, egg-shaped form, arranged in a grid tray for display. Each specimen reflects the unique geological beauty and mineral diversity of the Lake Superior region. Mineral Type: Thomsonite is a rare member of the zeolite group, composed of hydrated sodium calcium aluminum silicate. Formation: Found in vesicles of volcanic basalt, especially along the North Shore of Lake Superior, where ancient lava flows created ideal conditions for zeolite crystallization. Rarity: Thomsonite is among the rarest zeolites, prized for its aesthetic qualities and limited geographic occurrence. Symbolism: Egg shapes are often associated with renewal and protection, adding symbolic depth to their geological appeal. Use: Primarily ornamental, these eggs are used in display collections, lapidary arts, and educational contexts.Material and Mineral Composition
