Moroccan Sahara White Quartz - prices from

White quartz: Stunning, crystal-filled geodes, often appearing as dull rocks until opened, revealing sparkling white quartz (silica) crystals inside, formed over millennia from volcanic gas bubbles and mineral-rich water.

Origin: Mined in Morocco's High Atlas Mountains, often from the Western Sahara region.

Formation: Formed in volcanic rock cavities (gas bubbles in basalt) where silica-rich water deposited quartz crystals over millions of years.

Appearance: Appear as plain, dusty pebbles when closed but reveal hollow interiors lined with clear, glossy quartz points.

Composition: Primarily silica, sometimes mixed with other minerals like calcite or aragonite in desert geodes, leading to variations in hardness and luster. 

Metaphysical: Believed to enhance energy, bring harmony, boost manifestation, and release negative energy in healing practices.

Scientific: The crystal structure of clear quartz can store and transmit energy, making them interesting subjects for study.
