A very well-formed example of Hematite crystals on a Smokey Quartz prism. The Quartz is unusual in that it is doubly terminated and in very good condition. The "Ongeite" is noted inside the Quartz and is not considered a valid specie. In much better condition and distinct form that we usually see, this is from an older Northeast collection listed only as "Onegite" obtained from the famed Lazard Cahn (no label however) in the early 20th century. A distinctive and classic American specimen these are unlike anything else from any other locality. A few areas of the Quartz have red staining that is also typical of this region.
