Faden Quartz (Ref: AX-25-015)
Waziristan Ophiolite, North Waziristan, FATA Federally Administered Tribal Areas, Pakistan
48mm x 41mm x 20mm
minID: C08-LL0
A perfect flat style Faden Quartz with very clear line or "string" in a very clear prism. Textbook form and excellent condition, from the incredible find a few years ago in Waziristan. Faden Quartz is fairly rare world wide but this find was so productive that it is still possible to find a choice specimen at a very reasonable cost. As an extra, this has a very slight twist or bend to the main crystal. Remarkably the edges are all perfectly sharp and complete.From: Well-Arranged Molecules
