Quartz (Cumberland habit) with Hematite (Ref: 18.1-366)
Chubb Lake, St. Lawrence County, New York, United States
22mm x 19mm x 17mm
minID: PKP-FHR
A USA classic Quartz from Chubb Lake, New York, this is a perfect thumbnail with textbook form. The crystal is complete all around, undamaged, a floater with sharp faces and a sparkling dusting of Hematite in tiny crystals. The Quartz is also included with the same sparkling Hematite which can be seen clearly inside the faces. This locality has been closed for many years and is remarkably similar in its mineralogy to the old British localities of the Cumberland Iron mines. This piece could easily pass as British (and as a very fine piece) but it is actually much more uncommon from this small but significant US locale.From: Well-Arranged Molecules
