Item Description
A 9.3 cm, pristine, sharply terminated, quartz crystal with rippled frosted faces dramatically accents this impressive large spray of pretty pastel-pink elongated manganoan calcite prisms with flat terminations. The contacting and periphery wear certainly has only minimal impact to this excellent 360-degree piece. This is a striking large combination from recent finds at this now famous mine. Neon-orange fluorescence!
