Aquamarine from Alchuri, Shigar Valley, Shigar District, Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan

A striking clear quartz crystal specimen with a tall, naturally terminated prismatic point. The transparent crystal features internal fractures, inclusions, and subtle surface textures, while clusters of white secondary mineral growth are attached along one side. Shown held between fingertips against a soft gray and deep blue background, the piece has a raw, natural aesthetic and strong clarity.
