Description
This collection of 14 crystals are from the high alpine mountains of Colorado. Though there only two mineral varieties (quartz and feldspar), it is evident that each can take a variety of different crystal habits. The quartz ranges from milky, clear, smoky, and some possess red hematite inclusions. The microcline feldspar ranges from white to salmon pink and has distinguishable blocky crystal habit. There is also a piece of graphic granite (large on left side of first photograph). This is a unique type of granite that occurs near where crystals are found. In other words, if you ever see a piece of graphic granite on the ground in the woods, dig there and you will find a cavity filled with crystals. NOTE: one specimen has been repaired. It is the combination of smokey quartz and feldspar cluster on the left side of my hand in the first photo that I’m holding the crystals. The repair was made with paleobond mineral glue and does not detract from the aesthetic value of the specimen. Origin: Colorado Weight: 306g
