A very large, spectacular specimen of "starburst" quartz from the Nikolaeskiy Mine at Dalnegorsk, quite uncommon, and named for the gorgeous radial bursts of crystals that look almost like fireworks. Note also the "bonus" euhedral pyrrhotite crystal over to one side. This is quite a showpiece! 16.9 x 11.4 x 7.9cm
