Quartz crystal points, large in size with B grade quality, the crystals show the termination of a quartz crystal as expected, however due to the lower quality of these specimens, they are not as transparent or of ‘text book’ qulaity as our other samples. These specimens are ideally suited for educaitonal use where multiple specimens may be required for a class to observe. They are large and so easy to observe, approximately 10 to 15 cm in length. Quartz is one of the most common minerals found on the surface of earth, a silica mineral and is found as a common constituent in many rocks. It has many other variations depending on chemistry of colour such as amethyst, citrine, jasper, aget and more. These particular crystals come from Madagascar and come supplied in a polythene bag with an information label.

Quartz Geode Fragments
Quartz Geode Fragments £1.50 – £6.00 ex VAT

Natural quartz geodes or nodules found in the Sahara desert, Morocco. These geodes are all lined with sparkling white minute quartz crystals which if set against a dark backdrop, shine brightly. Geodes form as bubbles of gas within magma (the term for lava when the molten rock is still underground). Because of the temperatures difference bwteen the magma and the pocket of gas, the crystals form slower, crystals which form slower tend to form in larger sizes and so with a geode, you have an outside which is made up of very fined grained crystals, too small to see and the inside, which is full of larger crystals. These geodes are slowly becoming harder to obtain as the collectors struggle to get to the site which is littered with old exposive mines from a previous war and when the geodes were stock-piled puff adders set – up home amongst them. These specimens are available in various sizes as geode fragments and come supplied in a card tray with information label.

Smokey Quartz
Smokey Quartz Points £2.25 – £3.00 ex VAT

The colour is due to free silicon at the time the quartz was forming, formed from silicon dioxide from natural radiation. These particular mineral specimens are of the individual crystal points and are of very high quality, they display the quartz crystals termination very well and exhibit a very dark grey sometimes black colouration with minimal transparency, almost opaque. The crystals come from Madagascar and come supplied in two different sizes, in a white card tray with information label. Please note that size variation is approximate, and will vary between pieces.

Calcite (Optical) – Iceland Spar £1.50 – £2.50 ex VAT

Iceland spar is a clear variation of calcite, it exhibits the rhombic crystal system of calcite perfectly, the crystals easily divide into rhombs, making them well sought after for a variety of reasons. Originally reported from Helgustadir Mine, Eskifjord, Iceland, hence its name. One of the most remarkable aspect of Iceland spar is its refractive properties. When light passes through one of the crystals, it is divided into two rays at different angles which results in a double refraction effect. Essentially, anything seen though the crystal is seen in double. This can best be seen if you place the calcite over some text, it will appear as if it has been printed twice. These mineral samples come from Santa Eulalia, Chihuahua, Mexico and are available in 2 sizes: Upto 1″ and Over 1″. They come in a card tray with an information label.
