Posted: May 15, 2014 13:12 Post subject: A new discovery of quartz crystals in the Montseny Massif - Catalonia - Spain |
|
|
Hello forum friends! Some days ago on April 30th, hiking with a friend of mine about the area of Montseny, which I already know pretty well, we saw a sign of a possible quartz pocket in a pegmatite. And truly, we were very lucky.
I am showing to you through the photographs, how the quartz crystals were extracted and the pieces after being cleaned.
Best wishes and I hope you enjoy the report.
Best Regards!

It reminds we of when I found a pocket of quartz in a new track cutting in the Picos de Europa (norther Spain) on my honeymoon! I had no hammers or chisels with me (learned from that mistake I can tell you - they always go with us on walks now), and my new wife was not ecstatic, as you can imagine. Had to get the crystals out with a stick and wrap them in a plastic bag I found in the farmers field. But I still have the best of them!

Thank you very much for the compliments friend Tobi. There goes the clean quartz. Best regards!
Hi James, good memories, a geode waiting and a man without tools, like a primitive man, with only a stick, much merit. Best regards!

I am very glad that you like the story friend Pierre. When I see your reports I also like a lot.
Now, some quartz from my friend who also collected in the pocket.
Best regards;-)

Another more pieces from my collection.
These are the latest interesting quartz I took from the pocket.
In the pocket there is nothing left.
I hope you liked it.
Best regards;-)

Very nice finds of quartz Joan; thank you for taking the time to photograph your exciting digging project. Did you backfill the hole when you had finished?
Best regards,
Mike

Hello friend Mike
Usually we cover the hole, the rest is nature over time.

Hi Joan, what is the black mineral on the quartz and feldspar? My experience is that often when there is a good pocket found, there is another one or more in the immediate vicinity. If I was you, I would return and scan that area for tell tale signs of more pockets. Regards.

Hello friend Pierre
I think it's some manganese oxide, will be studied.
If we look at the area well, I think we can find more pockets. It is a very interesting area.
Very soon return.
we are in contact.
regards
