XM290NTB: Quartz with iron oxides inclusions
Druse of Quartz crystals with no prism development, only first generation pyramidal faces being visible.

SV3640EZT: Quartz with Quartz after Fluorite
An odd piece from Sidi Rahal: Large, with a pretty color and in good condition, with two peculiarities: small crystals that form elongated groups of stalactitic aspect, not much seen before in Sidi Rahal, and also, the presence of a pseudomorph of Quartz after a large Fluorite crystal. It does not stand out especially because it is on the side of the specimen and is very flat, but there it is. A double rarity from a locality that already had a tendency to yield peculiar quartzes.
