An unusual old-time specimen of very slender, spiky crystals of quartz, with some platy hematites present, from Cornwall. This was a ridge exposed on both sides in the pocket, so there are crystals on both sides. You can see a sprinkling of what appears to be a sulfide mineral on the quartz crystals. Ex. Richard Hauck Collection.
