9.4" Striated "Lemurian" Quartz Crystal - Brazil
This is a gorgeous, 9.4" long, striated quartz crystal that was collected from Minas Gerais, Brazil. Crystals of this structure are frequently referred to as "Lemurian Quartz" and are steeped in metaphysical lore. In addition to crisp, unpolished faceting and a sharp termination, this crystal is wreathed in horizontal striations that give it a satisfying texture and stepped appearance.

Silicon Dioxide, also known as SiO2 or Quartz, is the second most abundant mineral in the Earth's crust. Quartz crystals generally grow in silica-rich, hot watery solutions called hydrothermal environments, at temperatures between 100°C and 450°C, and usually under very high pressure. Quartz veins are formed when open fissures are filled with hot water during the closing stages of mountains forming, and can be hundreds of millions of years old.
