Hi Philippe,
I agree with Joseph & Dany, you have a wonderful hematite collection! Though this is not one of my favourite minerals to collect, I really enjoyed the variety of shapes and localities that you presented. A very fine selection of hematite specimens!
Regards
Tobi

I am not sure what it is,

Hi to everybody, hi Philippe!
Ok, it's difficult to detect an inclusion just by seeing a photo, however I can try.
Those inclusions in quartz seem to me as liquid phases in form of small drops, or as micro-crystals. There is a kind of quartz, which is found in Pakistan and was named "Faden Quartz", from the German word "Faden" which means silk, because of the appearance of these inclusions.
I apologize if I am wrong, but... I just saw some photos!
Greetings from Italy by Riccardo.
