Mykkhul97 Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 Hi. I know that the one side is amethyst in the picture, but on the other side looks like smoky quartz with a vein of quartz in the middle. Clear to dark gray in color. Any info would help. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrangellian Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 Interesting - I've seen these amethyst pieces before but never seen a piece with more xls lining the other side (smoky or otherwise)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. It actually came with fossils, minerals, and a ton of amethyst. There are quite a few with smoky quartz much bigger. It took a long time to clean, but beautiful pieces!!!

Heavy_D Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Beautiful specimen. I don’t think I’ve ever seen one with amethyst and smoky quartz before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
