Mineral and Geological Context

Rock crystal is the traditional name commonly used for transparent quartz, a naturally occurring mineral composed of silicon and oxygen. Quartz is one of the best-known and most widely recognised minerals in geology and collecting. In its classic crystal form, quartz may develop a prismatic habit with angled terminations, although the exact appearance of a natural specimen depends on its growth conditions and the individual crystal.

The Maderanertal, Silenen, Uri, Switzerland locality provides useful geographic context for cataloguing and display. Locality information is an important part of mineral collecting because it connects a specimen with a particular region and supports organised study of natural geological material. This piece is suitable for anyone interested in Swiss minerals, quartz specimens, Alpine collecting localities or historically documented collections.
