Collector noteQuartz rewards close inspectionLook for crystal faces, terminations, inclusions, and any variety name that belongs on the label.+
Quartz is common enough that the specimen story often comes from form, association, locality, and condition. A clear close photo plus a careful locality line can make one quartz specimen feel very different from another.

Collector noteLocality gives a specimen its address in mineral historyCountry, region, mine, or district can matter more than a long description.+
Public locality should be useful without being risky. Share the level that helps another collector understand the specimen, and keep exact or sensitive site details out of public browsing.
