This beautiful natural specimen is dominated by an impressive growth of Quartz crystals, ranging from milky white and translucent to areas of remarkable clarity. Large, well-defined crystal formations overlap and interlock across the specimen, creating substantial depth and dimension. Variations in transparency allow light to penetrate some crystals while reflecting brightly from others, highlighting the natural internal features and individual crystal faces.
Contrasting dramatically with the Quartz are clusters of deep green to nearly black Epidote growing between, around, and in places directly upon the Quartz crystals. Rather than forming the primary matrix, the Epidote acts as a rich accent throughout the specimen, emphasizing the pale Quartz and revealing the close relationship between the two minerals during formation. Small Epidote inclusions can also be seen within portions of the Quartz, adding another level of detail for close examination.Dimensions (inches)
