Quartz - mim 2212 - Pakistan
Bughimas Mine, Lasbela district, Baluchistan
SiO2

Largest crystal: 10 cm
Dimensions: 10 x 7 x 4.5 cm

Double terminated quartz with multiple secondary terminations. This crystal contains an uncommon 4-phase inclusion consisting of a gas bubble trapped in the petroleum, the yellow petroleum itself, a darker brown organic material, and black carbon inclusions. The gas bubble formed as the petroleum contracted more than the quartz after cooling, thus pulling a vacuum within the fluid which vaporized the lighter cuts of the petroleum and created this bubble. This sample is highly fluorescent under both short and long wave UV.

Quartz doublement terminé avec plusieurs terminaisons secondaires. Ce cristal contient une inclusion rare à 4 phases consistant en une bulle de gaz piégée dans le pétrole, le pétrole jaune lui-même, une matière organique brun plus foncé et des inclusions carbonées noires. La bulle de gaz s'est formée au fur et à mesure que le pétrole se contractait plus que le quartz après refroidissement, créant ainsi un vide dans le fluide qui a vaporisé les coupes plus légères du pétrole créant cette bulle. Cet échantillon est très fluorescent sous UV longs et courts.
