Erongo Mtns., Namibia
description:
Very unusual and interesting example showing a prismatic terminated crystal of feldspar in turn coated with micro black schorl crystals. Throughout this and neatly oriented off of this feldspar crystal are smoky quartz crystals to 3.0 cm in length. Shows neatly all around and in very good condition, this measures 7.5 x 6.0 x 3.0 cm. I am not sure why, but these are often referred to as Gitter quartz. Shipping weight: 0.2 pounds.
