I picked a couple of kilo of this rock at Quartzite. I was pleasantly surprised on how it turned out

It's beautiful.  I am not familiar with prinite; might it be a pale green prehnite, that is often associated with epidote?

Yes, the green faded a little with cutting. And the color didn't show well with my iPhone camera
