Malachite-Infused Smoky Phantom Quartz Clusters from Luena, Congo

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Luena, Congo, is known for its classic cascading quartz crystals, displaying a smokey color with distinctive phantom-like formations. Recently, the region has produced mostly clear to smokey cascading quartz with well-defined phantoms, while its famous counterpart, Citrine has become increasingly rare. The crystals from Luena are characterized by subtle smokey tones and intricate phantom layers within the quartz. Located in a highly remote area, access to the Luena deposits is challenging. Transporting the material down the mountainside on motorbikes adds further difficulty, making it difficult to prevent specimen breakage.
