Description

Many double terminated rock-crystals up to 3cm with light smoky color. Some show very unusual faces and termination. Some faces are powdered with chlorite, most are glossy – this features a nice contrast. The crystals are very clear, so you can see the matrix underneath. The backside is also crystallized and shows a few adularia crystals and tiny light smokies. The specimen was mined on 13th August 2003 in the North Face of Sonnblick Mt.
