We were out mid-April and headed north. We were on a mission as our Smokey quartz from Scotland was running low. Thank you guys for loving it so much. It's a long drive and takes a day or two to recover from nowadays. One of these days we will be too old to collect crystals and minerals from Scotland!
Anyway, this is a nice big 700g plus chunk of Scottish Smokey quartz. 
700g of rough smoky quartz for rock tumbling lots! 
It has the Scottish Highlands typical mica scuff on it  but there is definitely nice grey colour to it. It looks like there is a dark patch under the schist. This Scottish quartz crystal also has a piece of moss on it, and a line where we would cut it if we were to do the lapidary work on this piece.
This is an awesome Scottish mineral sample suitable for display, lapidary slicing and cabbing, and any crystal collection.
