Ilvaite with Quartz ( var. Prase ) (Ref: GR124)

Serifos Island, Cyclade Islands, Kyklades Prefecture, Aegean Islands Department, Greece
26mm x 25mm x 15mm
minID: 5WQ-NDA
$325
A doubly-terminated, chocolate-brown Ilvaite crystal measuring 21 x 17 x 13 mm, has several green prase Quartz crystals to 26 mm long partly intergrown with it! Only the tip of one Quartz shows damage, but it is difficult to see given the rounded habit of these prase Quartz. Although both minerals exist on Serifos Island, this is an extremely RARE combination. This 2008 find is the only one which combines such a balanced presentation of both minerals. The double-termination makes the Ilvaite even rarer. This is a very unique specimen!
