Description

The specimen is a doubly terminated crystal of clear quartz as the main feature in a cluster of quartz on some feldspar residue. The elongate doubly terminated crystal is 3.9cm with some red hematite inclusions. Two other crystals protrude from the cluster with a degree of prominance setting up a contrast with the main crystal.
