This attractive cluster is a good example of solution quartz, which is a rather uncommon occurence world wide. The Jeffrey Quarry was closed in the 1980's, and is famous for producing these super clear Quartz clusters that were formed in a silica-rich solution. It's in fine condition, without any visible damage. I got this out of an old collection, it was probably collected in the early 1970's.
