Description

First I have to apologize for the catastrophic images. The quartz is so clear, gemmy and highly lustrous, combined with numerous glistening faces. It was nearly impossible to find a good angle for a useful picture. Anyway, a fine mostly perfect specimen of so called needle-quartz with one japan-law-twin on the specimen. This is the most sought quartz variety of that locale. Very hard to find.
