3.1" Polished Blue Quartz Egg - Utah

This is a polished specimen of blue quartz collected in Utah. Like many other forms of blue quartz, the blue color can likely be attributed to dumortierite inclusions.

Comes with an acrylic ring stand.

Dumortierite is an aluminum boro-silicate mineral that often forms as fibrous aggregations. The crystals are typically blue, however grey-blue, green, and brown crystals are also common. In rare cases, the crystals can be violet or pink. Dumortierite is often found as fibrous crystals within massive quartz: blue dumortierite-included quartz, known as "dumortierite quartz" crystals, are highly sought after.
