Beautiful citrine geode from Brazil

A compact citrine geode from Brazil with honey-colored, brightly shining crystals. The inner surface displays unpolished, natural points with natural brilliance and full growth termination.

A particularly thick rock crystal rim frames the citrine points. This mineralogical layering documents a late growth phase in which clear SiO₂ superseded the warm citrine tones.

Brazilian citrines typically form through geological heat exposure to amethyst crystals. The honey-colored saturation of this geode indicates moderate, even temperatures in the host rock.

A handy collector's geode with an unusually wide rock crystal rim and a fully honey-colored inner surface, suitable as a table or shelf object.
