Rose Quartz Tower - Large Piece

Rose quartz is a pink variety of quartz, often light pink to deeply saturated.

This course (large crystals) igneous rock is found in hydrothermal veins and as pegmatite bodies, forming from the final stages of cooling magma flows.

The soft and serene pink colour is due to inclusions of a microscopic fibrous borosilicate mineral, called dididumortierite, related to dumortierite, as well as titanium and iron.

This particular specimen is quite large and has a long, flat, rectangular side, and five other angular sides. It has a rust or iron oxide spot, so the price has been reduced.
