Such a powerful and amazing crystal this is. 

It has wonderful  characteristics, it´s a Record Keeper, it has a penetrator crystal with  beautiful rainbows and although one of the points has been broken, it  still feels like a double terminated crystal, because it started to heal  it self where it was broken and the termination its still clearly  visible.

Hashupi  quartz crystals of high quality like this one are a very rare type of  Himalayan crystals, the higher the quality the higher the difficulty to  get them, not only because of climate conditions and high altitudes,  that makes miners only extract them for a few months a year but also  because crystals of such high quality  have been very hard to find in  the mines.


This crystal comes from Hashupi mine,  in  Shigar Valley, Shigar District, Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan.
