Pair of smokey Quartz crystals, each with an inclusion of green Fluorite. Fluorite ON Quartz is common enough from this area, but Fluorite IN Quartz is rare, both here and worldwide. These are not tiny, trivial Fluorite crystals either, the largest appears to be about 7-8mm wide. There are two Fluorites in the larger Quartz and one in the smaller Quartz. There are also abundant Schorl both in and on the Quartz. Unusual.
