Macro Mondays and Rock

Rose quartz is a variety of quartz. The colour varies from dark pink to very light, translucent pink. Rose quartz, named after the pink colour, is often cracked and usually slightly cloudy. Very small rutile needles cause a six-radiate star in cabochon grinding. The colouring substances are titanium and manganese. The color may fade. Rose quartz has been worked as a gemstone for a long time.

Another from my mineral collection is this quartz. When small crystals grow in this sugar-like formation along the main 'stems' it is known as druzy, hence druzy quartz. Lead inclusions can also be seen as flecks in the crystals.

My husband bought this knife in Sedona and it is so unique. He collects small knives and I think this one with the quartz blade is my favorite.

My second choice for Macro Mondays but I thought 'misfit' could be interpreted here as 'essential component'?!

You will find lots of Quartz veins running around and in crevices of Monzogranite boulders and rocks in Joshua Tree National Park.

Quartz ~ We find LOTS of it in the yard here and along the small creek where we often shoot! Like finding jewels!!

Quartz striations on a tiny island in Voyageurs, northern Minnesota

Woke up early yesterday morning (and the day before) to kayak through the archipelagos, this morning beaching at each small island to explore its "intimate landscapes" (I love/hate that term) - ancient rock and fresh moss, beaver skeletons and lake-tossed driftwood.
