Description

These are not so common: zonal violet long prismatic amethyst partly with transparent white cores/stems on granitic matrix from the Brandberg massif.

Nice colour and an interesting habit.

Not to be confused with the Tafelkop amethysts which come from the Etendeka flood basalts.

A showy one from a 2005 find.
