Hi all.
I noticed that a lot of so-called Nepheline is proposed by chinese dealers 
in ebay.
Judging by the photos only, I would say that it is something very diferent: 
Aragonite, like the one from Morocco.
And that should be a LOT cheaper than crystalized Nepheline, isn´t it?
I would appreciate other opinions about this.
Thanks.
Armando Afonso
