3.4" Dark Smoky Quartz Crystals (Double Termination) - Brazil

This is a beautiful, dark smoky quartz crystal from Minas Gerais, Brazil. There are two crystals attached together, each terminated at both ends. The color is natural and the crystals have not been heated, treated or polished.

Smoky quartz is a grey-brown to black variety of quartz. This common name is derived from from the appearance of smoke within the quartz crystal. Dependent on the location and the chemicals present during formation, smoky quartz can appear opaque black, however it’s typically translucent to some extent. It’s believed that the quartz gains this color from a combination of natural irradiation and aluminum impurities.
