Miniature (4.5-7 cm)
Size: 
6.6 × 4.4 × 2.5 cm
Description

A quartz crystal (group) with some chlorite inclusions coming from a small lot of very similar specimens at Krantz that were labeled to be from the Montecristo island, Tuscany. Montecristo has a similar geology to Elba with granites etc. so quartz from miaroles could be expected. Nevertheless the chlorite inclusions remind me more of alpine quarz. I leave this to the specialists to decide, no guarantee for the locality.
