This "alligator" quartz specimen has a great sculptural appearance with multiple complex faces. Darker inclusions along with glassy luster and gemmy areas gives this piece lots of character. The front or display side of the specimen is complete and only the back side is contacted where it was removed from its host rock. As an added measure there is a partially terminated schorl on the side of the quartz, measuring 2.5 cm in length...helps prove this is from the tourmaline districts of Minas Gerais. Weighs 661 grams.
