Product Overview This substantial mineral cluster features a complex association of Quartz, Tourmaline, and Lepidolite. The specimen showcases the stark contrast between the crystalline clarity of the Quartz and the distinct, columnar structures of the Tourmaline crystals. Interspersed throughout the matrix are rich, lilac-colored Lepidolite scales, which provide a unique texture and a soft, pearlescent luster to the overall composition.

Origin & Formation Clusters of this type typically originate from lithium-rich granite pegmatites, where slow cooling allowed multiple mineral species to crystallize in close proximity. This specimen represents a diverse geological environment, highlighting the interplay between silicate and mica minerals. The architectural complexity and the size of the cluster make it a significant example of natural mineral association.
