Mixed Natural Mineral & Crystal Collection – Volcanic & Hydrothermal Origin Specimen- 4223 g - (25)
A diverse and visually striking collection of natural raw minerals, stones, and crystals, formed through a volcanic–hydrothermal geological system. This lot includes a broad variety of silica, carbonate, sulfate, and volcanic specimens, showcasing different textures, colors, and crystal habits.
Included minerals (identified):
Calcite – massive, banded, fibrous and crystalline varieties
Milky Quartz – rough and vein quartz pieces
Drusy / crystalline Quartz – quartz crystal pockets and vugs in volcanic matrix
Chert / Flint (chalcedony) – microcrystalline quartz with conchoidal fracture
Jasper – iron-rich brown and red jasper with quartz veining
Selenite (Satin Spar – gypsum) – fibrous, silky crystalline forms
Vesicular Basalt / Volcanic Scoria – gas-bubble volcanic lava rock
Altered volcanic host rocks with iron-oxide staining
Minor pyrite inclusions visible in some quartz cavities
Geological context:
These specimens represent different stages of geological formation:
Volcanic activity (basalt/scoria)
Hydrothermal fluid circulation, depositing quartz, calcite, gypsum
Silica replacement and alteration, forming jasper, chert, chalcedony
Iron-rich environments, producing red, brown, and yellow staining
Some calcite- and quartz-bearing pieces show mild pink, orange, or red fluorescence under UV light, caused by natural trace elements such as manganese and iron.
