Natural Smokey Amethyst Brandberg Quartz Specimen
Brandberg is arguably on the most collectible localities for Quartz in the world, and specially out of Africa. Colour is a combination of Amethyst and Smokey.
The region is also renowned for optic to near optic quartz specimens. Phantoms and Enhydro are fairly common. The clusters occur in basalt vugs associated to volcanic activity, and are mined on a small scale by multiple individuals across a wide geographic area.
Classic Brandberg Quartz specimens may have Lepidocrocite inclusions in the Quartz, but this is not always the case. The inclusions can be specular or needle-like in occurrence.
The Brandberg region produces exceptional specimen grade material which has become exceptionally collectible over the past few decades.
