Dendritic Quartz
Clear quartz with fernlike dendrites and occasional yellowish clouds. Formed when various oxides in liquid seep into fissures in the parent material. Very nice looking material. I'm not sure what composes the inclusions,but they are probably iron, magnesium, manganese and other oxides. Someof these patterns are quite striking, as you can see. Dendrites are often seen here in the US in opaque to translucent agates, but not in clear quartz. This is collectable and can be used in jewelry. Try some. You'll like it.
