Superb six-sided euhedral crystal of quartz coated with limonite ("turgite"), with a resplendent iridescence that is as bright and colorful as you could ask for. In person, it tops the pics! This is just a magnificent example of a normally worthless mineral, because of the colors...classic in old specimens form this locality but rarely seen today!
