Summary edit

Description
English: Hematite, Quartz
Locality: Oranje River, Namibia
Size: cabinet, 11.6 x 8.5 x 7.4 cm
Quartz var. Amethyst included with Hematite
This is on its own merits a gorgeous multicolored specimen has matrix of massive quartz as the host for a cluster of discrete, extremely sharp , prismatic quartz crystals. It is also ILLUSTRATED IN THE NAMIBIAN MINERALS MAGNUM OPUS, by Rainer Bode, page 734. Internally the crystals are gemmy, and color ranges from colorless to amethyst-purple. A later generation of growth contains rich hematite inclusions, with an unusually rich reddish-brown color and superb luster. This combination has embodied these crystals with incredible colors. The largest crystal measures 7.0 cm in length. No damage to the display face! It is also MUCH more eye-poppingly 3-dimensional in person. There is only a contact to the last crystal on the far left, on the back of the display face; and a tiny Wilber on the back side of the termination of the largest crystal. It is large, and has great visual presence.
