Description

Fantastic quartz piece from a locality you don't expect to find good quartz specimens!The single crystal is skeletal and has new layers growing over previous ones!The contacts are recrystallized and on the bottom there is calcite covering the areas where it was attached to matrix.The limonite and oxides give color and there is nothing except a small ding on a secondary termination.
