Brandberg is famous for these world-class amethyst crystals, distinguished by their water-clarity and by the isolation of the purple color in beautiful "blushes." This is a relatively large crystal, with a weird flat sidecar crystal; you can see evidence of skeletal growth now enclosed inside the crystal.
