That´s a real killer specimen: Quartz crystal cluster with papagoite and ajoite inclusions from the Artonvilla mine, Messina district, Limpopo Province, South Africa

I was fortunate to be able to acquire this exceptionally aesthetic quartz cluster full of papagoite and ajoite from a collector as part of a high end deal.

There are a number of prime features that make this 6,8 cm piece stand compared to others that you might find: the cluster is three dimensional, very glassy, high lustrous, double terminated with super intense color and inclusions. A real great quality and aesthetic specimen!

Inside you will find a „Helix of Hematite“ in one of the glassy and lustrous points.

The papagoite enrichment is a dramatic saturated vibrant blue that stands out well against the pure white glassy quartz. The condition is superb and totally undamaged.

A real killer!

Location: From Mussina District, South Africa

Measures: 6,8 x 6,5 x 2,8 cm in total size.
