The upper portion displays large, well-defined purple amethyst crystal points with exceptional clarity and faceting, positioned above a massive natural white quartz formation that occupies the lower third of the piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMulti-Generation Mineral Growth — Lavender Druzy and Transparent Quartz Points\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat makes this specimen truly rare is the secondary mineral activity visible within the quartz zone: a fresh growth of lavender druzy amethyst has formed directly on top of the white quartz, alongside elongated transparent quartz points emerging from the center. This layered sequence of mineral generations — basalt host, white quartz, amethyst cluster, secondary druzy — documents an unusually active geological history inside a single specimen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe clean white chalcedony exterior wraps most of the piece, providing a bright natural contrast to the purple crystal face. The flat-cut base ensures stable, stand-free display. At nearly 27 lbs, this is a floor-level or large-shelf statement piece. One of a kind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 26.83 lb \/ 12.17 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Geode, flat cut base\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCrystal color:\u003c\/strong\u003e Purple with large defined crystal points\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecial features:\u003c\/strong\u003e Massive white quartz base with secondary lavender druzy growth and transparent quartz points\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Artigas, Uruguay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSelf-standing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stable flat-cut base — no stand required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraceability:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/traceability\"\u003eCertificate of origin — emporiongems.com\/pages\/traceability\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Emporion Gems","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47679984369827,"sku":"101","price":1409.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0405\/4538\/6659\/files\/26.83_lbs-Photoroom_1.jpg?v=1779118292","url":"https:\/\/emporiongems.com\/products\/large-amethyst-geode-with-quartz-26-83-lb-uruguayan-specimen","provider":"Emporion Gems","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
