Description

Phantom quartz group centered around a bent main crystal. The intensely moss-green chlorite phantoms and their cloudy to granular substructure are most characteristic for the locality. The crystals are highly lustrous and show water-clear tips. No significant damage, except for an old rupture at the bottom. I personally consider Schin gorge specimen as the most attractive phantom quartz crystals of the entire Alps, and this great miniature shows why. Please watch the 360° HD video for your convenience.
