Description
This specimen is a natural double-terminated Lithium Quartz crystal, exhibiting clear to milky transparency with subtle hints of lithium-related inclusions. Both ends of the crystal naturally taper to points, preserving its raw form.
Formation
Lithium Quartz forms as silicon dioxide crystals often containing trace amounts of lithium, which influence its color and clarity. The double-terminated shape occurs when the crystal grows freely without attachment to a host rock.
Function
Primarily used as a mineral specimen for display or collection.
Care
-
Clean gently with a soft, dry cloth.
-
Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
-
Store safely to protect the crystal points.
