Quartz with Barite

Unknown Owner
A grouping of glassy gem double terminated quartz crystals with binder barite. These crystals have inclusions of hydrocarbon. Crystallized completely all around with no points of attachment, this is in good condition. Very reminiscent of the quartz specimens known as Herkimer Diamonds from New York.
