Loading... Please wait...A VERY ATTRACTIVE THREE-FACED, CLEAR QUARTZ CRYSTAL WITH INCLUSIONS OF PAPAGOITE, AJOITE AND NATIVE COPPER
This clear quartz crystal has a well formed three faced termination, but only a small amount of side stem (shaft).
The three faces are as follows:
Face 1) black and azure blue AJOITE fibres
with strands of NATIVE COPPER, visable
to the naked eye (better viewed under a
microscope). (approx 60% black and
40% azure blue AJOITE)
Face 2) black and azure blue AJOITE fibres
(approx 30% black and 60% azure blue
AJOITE and 10% clear quartz)
Face 3) black and azure blue AJOITE fibres plus
good showing of PAPAGOITE (approx
10% black and 45% azure blue AJOITE
and 45% deep sky blue PAPAGOITE)
All damage on this well preserved specimen is natural and there is partial regrowth on the bottom of the shaft. White microscopic KAOLINITE balls are also visable under the microscope.
Diameter: 20mm
