Quartz enclosing Brookite
Collection
Robert Lavinsky
Description
A clear doubly terminated Quartz encloses a 2.2 cm doubly terminated Brookite crystal that is floating in perfect alignment to the axis of the Quartz, as if it grew around the Brookite as a seed. Small acicular Rutile crystals shoot off the Brookite, as well. This small treasure, for rarity and novel aesthetics, is a fantasic example of included Quartz.
