Geology & Origin
The Vogelsberg in Hesse is a large volcanic region composed predominantly of basaltic rocks. Mineral-rich fluids later deposited various secondary minerals within cavities and fractures in these volcanic rocks. Natrolite and Phillipsite belong to the zeolite group and typically occur as cavity linings or fillings. The specimens in this flat document different forms of this zeolite mineralization from the Vogelsberg.
