Quartz (green) on Dolomite crystals (Ref: 8.1-110)
Shangbao Pyrite Mine, Leiyang, Hunan Province, China
117mm x 88mm x 45mm
minID: 9D0-FAX
A killer quartz "tree" or tangled shrub of slender Quartz crystals with a mint-green color perched on a matrix of large Dolomite crystals. Mined in 2006 at the famed Shangbao Mine, this is a really distinctive display piece. Many of the Quartz are doubly terminated and the condition overall is excellent. Shangbao is justly famous for some of the best Fluorites in the world. However, there were also a few finds over the years of highly esthetic and often odd Quartz. A unique piece that mixes fine quality, good size and display impact. From: Well-Arranged Molecules
