Two weeks I was out at a dig site for smokey quartz. Was getting skunked all drat day, hours and hours of unsuccessful digging. 'Just one more hole' and I started unearthing shards of quartz from the decomposed granite layer. It was all pretty shattered but some of it had the quartz crystal pseudoform. I collected it all just happy to find -something- eventually I unearthed a beer-can sized chunk of really fractured quartz that had one glassy side to it. Then a softball-sized vuggy chunk of decayed granite that had tiny quartz crystals in the cavities. Then one chunk of reall glassy smokey quartz before the seam went dry. Took it all home, never been so happy to have a bunch of regular looking quartz
