Description

Interesting sample of light blue quartz, and dolomite on a porphiric matrix.
Normally quartz in this field are very dark blue, only a small group appeared with this pretty pale blue in the upper part of the deposit when I found it over 20 years ago.
This was one of the first pieces I found at that site.
