Sunset Phantom Quartz (E)

Known as “Sunset Phantom Quartz,” this rare gem can only be found in a single location on Earth. First discovered in 2022, it earns its evocative name from the striking purple-red hematite inclusions suspended within its crystal-clear points, creating a stunning visual effect. The yellow-hued matrix enhances the overall “sunset” aesthetic, making each piece a natural work of art. 

This cluster is unique because despite the missing points here and there, there are a handful of long skinny points near the bottom that have a rare “sprouted” growth, what some people call “pineapple” quartz. 

Due to the crude mining practices at this particular mine, it’s incredibly hard to find pieces without some sort of imperfection. Please check the video for a full view of the specimen.
