Quartz - Pakistan, Gilgit District
specimen
Quartz
Description
These fantastic "Herkimer-style" quartz crystals came from GILGIT, of all places. Look at the quality! They are like jewels, and what makes them really cool are the inclusions. Something has given them these areas of pretty acid yellow color. And, inside both crystals are pockets of water with moving bubbles inside ("enhydros") which makes them even more wonderful!
