Item Description

Tiny schorl needles are richly included in this large compound quartz crystal from an uncommon, but noted Montana quartz locale - the PC Mine. Several of the faces are lightly frosted, while others are water-clear on this complete all-around, gemmy to translucent, sharply terminated, parallel-growth crystal cluster. Nearly pristine, with only two small out-of-sight spots of edge wear on the back of the piece. Excellent and very highly representative combination material from this locale. Ex Schlichter Collection. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON.
