Here is an amazing large cabinet specimen of Herkimer "Diamond" Quartz.
This is a large piece of "dolostone" dolomite limestone matrix. Exposed in the matrix are two small druzzy quartz and first phase dolomite lined pockets. In each are A+ - AA, double terminated herkimer quartz crystals. The rating "A+" and "AA" means extremely clean and gemmy crystals.
This specimen weighs in at just over 4 pounds and measures approx. 6.5 inches long x 4 inches tall x 4 inches thick.
In one pocket is single water clear crystal. The length of this crystal is approx. 2 cm long. The second pocket has a single water clear crystals that measures approx. 1.4 cm long.
All of the visible crystals are still attached to the walls of the pocket.
A+ - AA Herkimer crystals in matrix are very rare specimens, since crystals of this quality and size are always removed.
