Large single Rhodo of an unusual style, different from others I have seen from this locality.

The terminations are not cleavages as there are areas on the very edges of the termination faces that also have small amounts of the Quartz crystals. Undamaged and complete. One photo is backlit to show the translucency of the crystal.
