A new find near the city of Hyderabad has recently produced a number of amazing phantom quartz specimens. This one is an aesthetic group with a dominant main qaurtz and a group of accompanying side crystals. The whole specimen is in very good condition and with distinctive and beautiful hematite phantoms in each and every one of the glassy quartz crystals! There are minimal abrasions present but hardly anything noteworthy. Even the bottom is fully re-crystallized and well! It's certainly one of the better ones we have seen from that amazing find!
