Pentagonite on Heulandite

Check out this stunning Pentagonite on Heulandite specimen from Maharashtra, India!

Pentagonite is an incredibly rare and beautiful mineral, known for its electric blue color and needle-like, pom-pom crystal formations. This mineral is often found nestled in Heulandite or stilbite, both members of the Zeolite group of minerals, which forms in volcanic rocks. Pentagonite is a hydrated calcium vanadium silicate, comprising elements like calcium, vanadium, and silicon.

Pentagonite is closely related to Cavansite, another electric blue mineral. While they look quite similar and can be found in the same regions, Pentagonite forms more complex and intricate crystal structures compared to Cavansite’s more simplistic clusters.

Some believe that Pentagonite is a stone of intuition and spiritual insight, helping to enhance psychic abilities and connect with higher realms. Heulandite is thought to promote personal growth and emotional healing, fostering a sense of peace and tranquility. 

Remember, these metaphysical properties are based on beliefs and not scientifically proven, but it’s always fascinating to explore the mystical side of these gorgeous minerals!
