Blocky, light green glassy crystals of Datolite, partly coated with microcrystals of Apophyllite and Arsenopyrite. I bought this from a well-known Dealer at a past Tucson Mineral Show and was asking him what were the black microcrystals on the specimen. Although not labeled, he thought it was Arsenopyrite, but turned around and asked a gentleman standing outside the booth, who turned out to be Bill Smith, himself. Bill confirmed that is was Arsenopyrite and I got hold of his original inventory card, which traced back to where he obtained the specimen. This is a great specimen and the photos barely do it justice.
