Clear Quartz Cluster | For Mineral Enthusiasts and Geology Collections
An exquisite angular specimen of sharded clear quartz, excavated from Guerrero Mexico.
Quartz has been known and appreciated since pre-historic times. The most ancient name known is recorded by Theophrastus in about 300-325 BCE, κρύσταλλος or kristallos.
