Wild specimen consisting of a large double-terminated Quartz crystal attached to a shard of Quartz by a thin layer of Calcite crystals. This is a floater specimen covered on all sides by Calcite. The two pieces (Quartz crystal and Quartz shard) must have deteched in the pocket naturally and were fused together by the Calcite crystals into one specimen.
