encrusted by a second generation of smaller crystals grown on its prism
faces. These crystals were first discovered in 1986 in the Magaliesberg
Mountain Range near Pretoria, South Africa. It occurs as quartz, citrine
and amethyst, and comes in a wide range of colors, including purple amethyst,
violet amethyst, smoky, milky clear and golden citrine.
