Himalayan Chlorite Quartz Statement Cluster 29.7 lbs

A museum-scale Himalayan chlorite quartz cluster weighing nearly 30 pounds — one of the largest and finest we have ever offered. Vivid green chlorite phantoms and inclusions throughout, evidence of crystallization deep inside the Himalayan range over millions of years.

Himalayan quartz of this size and quality is becoming genuinely hard to source. Access to the high-altitude deposits where these form is increasingly restricted, and the hand-mining operations that produce specimens this large are fewer each year. This is the kind of piece that serious collectors acquire once and keep.

ABOUT HIMALAYAN CHLORITE QUARTZ

Chlorite-included quartz from the Himalayas forms at extreme altitudes where tectonic pressure and mineral-rich fluids create conditions found nowhere else on Earth. The green chlorite was trapped inside the growing quartz crystal, preserving a geological record millions of years old. Finding specimens this large with this level of inclusion is rare — most Himalayan chlorite quartz on the market is a fraction of this size.
