Summary

Description
English: Nepheline, Kentbrooksite
Field of view
4.4 mm x 6.3 mm. Top to bottom, the nepheline spans 3.9 mm
Locality
Poudrette quarry (De-Mix quarry; Demix quarry; Uni-Mix quarry; Carrière Mont Saint-Hilaire; MSH), Mont Saint-Hilaire, La Vallée-du-Richelieu RCM, Montérégie, Québec, Canada
Description
Ex Ron Waddell. The greenish/gray nepheline does not fluoresce orange - a good indication that it has not been replaced by sodalite. The kentbrooksite really is a hot "shocking pink". Updated April 2016 with a (hopefully) more accurate full res image. There are two old stereo child photos - both with color problems (and other defects). But they may help to clarify the arrangement of the crystals.
