Chlorite Quartz Crystal Large - Skardu Valley - 495g - 12x6x6 cm

This impressive Chlorite Quartz crystal weighs approximately 500 grams and displays a fully developed prismatic form with remarkable natural symmetry. Its surface is covered in a fine coating of green chlorite, giving the crystal a velvety metallic sheen that reflects beautifully under light. The chlorite layer enhances the natural geometry of the quartz, creating depth, texture, and an earthy visual tone unique to chlorite-enriched specimens.

On closer inspection, the crystal’s faces retain their sharp structure beneath the chlorite coating, revealing subtle internal translucency near the termination. The base still shows areas of uncoated quartz, offering a striking contrast between smooth transparency and fine mineral texture. This interplay of form and color makes the specimen both mineralogically significant and visually captivating.

Sourced from the northern mountains of Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan, this piece represents the region’s alpine-style quartz occurrences known for their chlorite inclusions and surface mineralization. Its size, well-preserved structure, and uniform chlorite coverage make it an outstanding collector piece — equally suited for mineral display cabinets or natural décor settings.

Each specimen is entirely natural and hand-selected, ensuring authenticity and individuality. With its rich surface detail, balanced proportions, and lustrous green coating, this 500 g Chlorite Quartz stands as a timeless example of nature’s artistry and geological precision.
