Quartz included with Hematite (ex Brian Kosnar collection)

Item Description

The Braen's Quarry in New Jersey has been a seldom collection quarry for year, but has been a source of excellent Zeolite specimens and associated species. This piece features no Zeolites, but it hosts attactive, sharp, lustrous, gemmy Quartz crystals which are included with reddish and silvery-black crystals of Hematite. You can see the Hematite with the naked eye, but they look even better under magnification, and I photographed them under the microscope to help illustrate their quality. A wonderful example of this fantastic phenomenon in the mineral world.
