NQ46P2: Doubly terminated Quartz with inclusions

Group of crystals, one of them clearly dominant, very bright and with abundant carbonaceous inclusions, on a small matrix of Barite. The sample is from a recent find of a big geode in the locality. Unfortunately only a few specimens were saved and complete. The Emilio mine is very well known for colorless Fluorite crystals but Quartz is very uncommon there.

TC80E6: Doubly terminated Spinel

Large crystal of Spinel in which the octahedral form of the crystal is very visible, although the faces are not flat as there are many sub-faces due to parallel growth.
