This is an absolutely exquisite specimen of quartz, in addition to being just plain large and showy. The photos do not come close to capturing the stunning brilliance and glassy luster of these crystals. Inside are these bright red hematite-coated phantoms, AND inclusions of moss-green epidote crystals! Typically with this find, you saw quartz crystals interspersed with epidotes, or quartz crystals with phantoms, but not both inside the quartz crystals.
