Item Description

Here we have a good representative Quartz, Smoky Quartz and Amethyst specimen from this famous locality at Hallelujah Junction in Nevada. I obtained this specimen directly from the people who collected it. The piece was mined in May-June of 2017. It has good form and gemminess for any locality, especially one in the U.S. The piece features sharp, lustrous, well formed faces, with defined smoky, colorless and purple color zoning creating a distinct multi-color variation. It's incomplete on the back, but very gemmy and sharp on the display side, and a pretty good representative specimen for the material.
