Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Quartz
Locality: Treasure Mountain Diamond mine, Little Falls, Herkimer County, New York, USA (Locality at mindat.org)
Size: miniature, 3.9 x 3.7 x 1.7 cm
Quartz sceptre with phantoms
This beautiful quartz miniature is unique in my experience, a triplet cluster of crisscrossing crystals. The largest is 3.5 cm, and doubly terminated though with a slight contact on one back tip. It is unusual, for the location and just for a quartz cluster in general. These phantomed scepters are valued highly, in part because they are so uncommon and so hard to extract as well - both from the ground and from the collectors as they are treasured by the local collectors and tend to stay in the area. Collected by Bob Whitmore in 2000. Except for the slight contact on the rear of one outside tip, this is a floater otherwise. Ex. Robert Whitmore Collection.
