Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Quartz
Locality: McEarl Pocket, Coleman Mine, Hot Springs, Garland County, Arkansas
Size: large cabinet, 24 x 12.4 x 8.3 cm (over 10 inches!)
Quartz
A really dramatic spray from this most famous of pockets. Few Arkansas quartz pockets are any different enough from others to be remembered by name, but this pocket of the mid-1980s IS such a find, with an optical clarity and a great lustre that is just a touch above the norm from here. Note also that the clarity goes deeper down to the base, whereas most larger quartz crystals from here get cloudy as the bottom nears. In person, the difference between a McEarl piece and a "normal" but very high quality Arkansas quartz is discernible. This splayed cluster of large crystals is exceptional for the size and, remarkably, without any major damage (just a few VERY trivial rear-tip dings that are present, but you don't see from afar). This specimen came from a major private collection assembled over decades, in Arkansas, that was dispersed around the year 2000.
