Scientific information: The greenish hue in the quartz results from chlorite inclusions, which are often incorporated during the growth of the crystal. The presence of clay further contributes to the distinctive appearance, while the adularia is a feldspar mineral that adds to the uniqueness of this specimen. The slightly smoky color is due to natural irradiation.
Photos: The photos are taken under strong lighting to prevent any alteration of the specimen’s natural colors. It is recommended to display the minerals in well-lit spaces to fully appreciate their natural hues.
