A cluster of long prismatic, lustrous crystals of quartz, to 5 cm in length, have been heavily included by chlorite, thus rendering the crystals a deep olive-green color. The back side of the specimen is covered by lustrous, white, calcite crystals, to 1 cm across. Great color contrast, and as a bonus the calcite fluoresces a purple orange.
