Zeolites are found in altered Eocene andesite in an old quarry along Road 4600, east of the town of Toutle, Cowlitz County, Washington. Zeolites are very scarce. Stilbite is the main zeolite present. One exceptional pocket, 45 cm long, was found by Steve Satra in 1995 in rock that had been completely altered to clay. That pocket was lined with a cream-colored stilbite sometimes on white fibrous mordenite and rarely calcite. Rudy Tschernich
