This specimen is complex, and fully terminated. Way way better than the pics show. Faden quartz occurs in a cleavage between two existing rock formations. Initially, this tiny quartz deposit is a gap-filled vein that has crystals connecting to both metamorphic rocks.

Product Description

For sale is a faden quartz, from Pakistan.  This is in excellent condition and display well from any side. Again very hard to capture accurately sorry. The specimen has great clarity. This specimen is complex, and fully terminated. Way way better than the pics show. Faden quartz occurs in a cleavage between two existing rock formations. Initially, this tiny quartz deposit is a gap-filled vein that has crystals connecting to both metamorphic rocks. Over an extremely long period of time, the two rocks will begin to separate. This gives the quartz an opportunity to continue crystallizing. This slow stretching of the quartz crystals results in a “string” like effect, the faden.
