Description
This huge plate consists of lustrous and translucent quartz crystals, to 3.0 cm in length, heavily included reddish-iron color by hematite. Most of the crystals are leaning in one direction, toward the top of the specimen as if away from the direction of flow within the vug. Fiery color, pristine condition - and HUGE!
