Quartz

LOCATION:

Tavetsch, Vorderrhein Valley, Graubunden (Grisons) Canton, Switzerland

DESCRIPTION:

Glassy, clear, alpine-type, light-smoky Quartz crystals make up this excellent and aesthetic specimen. The main Quartz crystal, measuring 4.7 x 1.6 x 1.3 cm in size, is doubly terminated and is accented at its base by numerous doubly-terminated Quartz crystals. Some Hematite is present and is partially included into some of the Quartz. The glassiness of the Quartz makes photography difficult. This is a high-quality classic Alpine Quartz. No damage.

SIZE: 52 x 45 x 32 mm (Miniature)

COLLECTION: ex. Bob Griffis Personal collection
