Ajoite in Quartz
Almost all of the dazzling Quartz points covering this hefty specimen boast classic, vivid teal inclusions of Ajoite-a very rare copper aluminosilicate mineral. Most, if not all of the Ajoite inclusions are consolidated to the terminations and outlined by other darker inclusions, giving the Quartz sharper and more interesting phantoms; viewing the Ajoite inclusions more closely shows they are quite fibrous, especially in the larger Quartz points. The cross section of a single large Quartz crystal is presented at the bottom-right of the front view, which has been fully recrystallized. Other minor associations of Hematite are scattered around the specimen, the majority of which is tucked away in the alcove that reaches horizontally across the specimen. This piece comes with a custom acrylic base.
