Unique Tabular Quartz Crystal with Epidote – Pakistan

Directly from the elite mineral veins of the Karakoram Range in Skardu, this 26.9g specimen showcases a distinct Tabular (Faden-like) Quartz growth. Unlike the typical vertical hexagonal points, this crystal has grown in a flattened, plate-like habit, offering a broad surface area that acts as a natural window into its interior.

Adorning the surface and partially included within the quartz are sharp, needle-like crystals of Epidote. The Epidote displays a rich, pistachio-to-olive green hue, providing a vivid color contrast against the water-clear transparency of the Quartz. This interaction between the two minerals highlights the complex, multi-stage cooling process of the Alpine-type veins where they formed. This is a 100% natural and untreated specimen, perfect for collectors of aesthetic associations and unique crystal habits.
