Item Description
A fine and uncommon quartz combination specimen from this renowned locale. The glassy, sharply terminated crystal is mostly transparent and is partially doubly terminated. A multitude of green epidote crystals (Type Locality) rising out of the feldspar matrix are included in and are on the sides of the quartz crystal. A few internal veils add character. Complete all-around and nearly pristine, with only a modest bit of termination edge wear. Excellent and rare combination material from this famous locale from the Bob Trimingham Collection.
