Minas Gerais has produced countless beautiful specimens of Quartz with a wide variety of crystal habits and mineral associations. The specimen shown here is fine example. It consists of a fan-like cluster of smaller, clear Quartz crystals serving as a background matrix for a much larger, double-terminated, sceptered Quartz crystal set to one side. Look closely and you will find several samll, multi-colored Tourmaline crystals included in the large Quartz crystal as well as hidden in the smaller Quartz crystals. An absolutely gorgeous specimen with no apparant damage.
