I’ve added some great specimens from a new find in this Bolivia Amethyst Update (click here). These are beautiful glassy crystals – some doubly-terminated, and some exhibit a great reverse-sceptre habit.
There isn’t more specific information about the locality at this time – I’m told that this is because it is in an unnamed area of Potosi, not near to any named settlement or geographic feature. The specimens were discovered by farmers, at the edge of a field area, bordering hills.
