Item Description
Fuchsite included quartz crystals are very rare, and present a unique aesthetic with sharp green zones within clear quartz. They have only come out from a handful of finds at this remote quartz mine, of which collectors value dearly today. This came out early, probably around 2010. Emplaced on a fine grained, white sandstone matrix is a plate of many lustrous, translucent to gemmy, mostly colorless quartz crystals, to 5.4 cm in length. Each crystal exhibits superb fuchsite phantoms in the gemmy area just beneath the termination. The fuchsite inclusions are colored a rich mint green. Only one crystal termination has been contacted and this is of no significance overall to aesthetics, as it is pristine otherwise. It is a dramatic display specimen of a rare inclusion style.
