Nicknamed "The Giza Plateau" for its striking resemblance with the famous pyramids of Egypt. Huge perfectly formed transparent octahedron of burgundy-red color, with smooth faces, on a plate made of prase quartz crystals (the color of which is due to green asbestos inclusions), with four small octahedra nested on its faces. Ten other small pink fluorite octahedra developed on nearby quartz points. This unusual configuration (large octahedron and second generation of smaller octahedra) is the signature of this exceptional discovery in Inner Mongolia. Lollingite covers certain quartz points, and lamellas of white calcite have developed at the back of the large octahedron.
