Description: Gyrolite + Apophyllite on Analcime
Inbhir a' Gharraidh, Duirinish peninsula, Isle of Skye, Scotland, UK
Field of view approx. 6 cm across
Self-collected from Inbhir a' Gharraidh, Duirinish, Isle of Skye in 1998. This locality is about 600m NW of MacLeods' Maidens - which are two or three prominent sea-stacks (pinnacles). If there was a scale of difficulty to access this place, it would be seven (assuming Sgurr nam Boc is grade five !).
