About the Item

Product Information: Specimen Type: Smoky Quartz on Albite Weight: 360 grams Dimension: H: 11.5 x W: 9 x D: 4.5 cm Origin: Dara I Pech, Chappa Dara District, Kunnar Province, Afghanistan Treatment: None Description: erminated and isolated smoky quartz crystals on albite from Pakistan are prized specimens among mineral enthusiasts and collectors. These stunning formations feature smoky quartz crystals, often with well-defined terminations, exhibiting a translucent to semi-transparent smoky gray to brown hue. The quartz crystals stand prominently and are typically isolated, creating an aesthetically striking contrast against the snowy white matrix of albite. The albite itself, a plagioclase feldspar, adds texture and balance to the specimen, with its fine-grained structure and a subtle pearly luster. Originating from Pakistan's renowned mineral-rich regions, these specimens showcase a harmonious blend of natural artistry and geological rarity, making them highly sought after for both their aesthetic appeal and their mineralogical significance.
