Dragon Fruit Quartz with Diopside crystals from Tanzania
We sorted through kilos of this material searching for the water clear quartz because the majority of the material found thus far is a milky quartz. We felt the contrast between the clear quartz and diopside really made for a beautiful contrast
When we first came across this I wasn't sure what it was but I was able to chip a piece of the diopside free and tested it with the Gemmo Raman 532
Many of these are clean and can be faceted into gemstones, or they would also make gorgeous cabochons
50+ grams / 11 pieces
Estimate: $75 - $85
