Diamantina Mine Quartz Point #4 with many extra faces - from Brazil


Please note that each square is 1/4". Always do combined shipping!!!!



Diamantina Mine Quartz points are very intriguing. I have observed about 1,000 of them, of varying sizes and quality. Here are my findings:
1. They all have many extra faces. Often times, these extra faces are "replicated" right below itself, with fainted lines.
2. The body shafts are often covered with the cosmic marked, like the Comet tails. So far from what I gathered, a point may have up to 3 body shafts covered with Comet tails arranged in this manner- Comet body shaft, clean body shaft, Comet body shaft, clean body shaft, Comet body shaft, clean body shaft. I have not seen one that has more than 3 Comet body shafts. You could relate these Comet tails to the horizontal straitions found in the Lemurian Quartz points.
3. The body shafts may be covered with HIEROGLYPH markings.
4. They come in clear or smoky due to the inclusions.
5. They sometimes have very tiny black inclusions which give a smoky hue to the point. The inclusion is like a sheet of coating around the body shafts inside the crystal point.
6. They seldom have rainbow rays.
7. They may have silvery foils.
8. Usually very clear.
