AMETHYST - CACTUS QUARTZ
Boekenhouthock in Bushweld , Pretoria is the famous site of the quartz variety.
Multiple generations of quartz growth result in these spectacular steps.
The first pieces were found 15 years ago near the surface at a depth of 1 - 2 meters, and there was an immediate run on this new variety of quartz. The pieces were rather small or single crystals in the colors white or colored yellow or purple with iron ions. Nowadays, these easily accessible sites have long since been completely cleared out, and today you have to dig 40 - 50 meters deep to get good pieces, which logically makes this material much more expensive.
