[QUOTE="22shells, post: 390163, member: 3817"] Here's an unusual crystal I found today. It's quite hard, and has six flat faces- almost like a cube. Pretty sure it's not quartz because quartz crystals normally have a hexagonal cross section with a point, and this has four sides with a flat top and bottom as well. The strange thing about it is that it seems to have fractures running in two different ways- both vertically and horizontally. Tried to get a couple of pics: [img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/3817/1518944917_p2181016.jpg[/img] [/QUOTE]
