Quartz (irradiated)
specimen number:
1654162
location:
Cavnic, Maramures Co., Romania
description:
A large plate of attractive glassy mostly gemmy so quartz crystals. When this piece was originally sold, it was sold as natural color and from a locality in Kazakhstan. Unfortunately this was common in the early 1990s. This piece is from Romania and was likely irradiated in Budapest to make the other. Regardless of all this, it is very attractive material.
