| jewl. |
Tiny quartz crystals that form within or on the surface of a stone. Druzy, often called druse or drusy, is formed when silica water enters a porous rock's small cavities and cools rapidly forming miniscule crystals. The result is a surface that is covered with short, thin crystals and looks similar to setting technique, micro pave. Malachite, pyrite, hematite, chrysocolla, uvarovite garnet, psilmelane, carnelian, and cobalto-calcite are commonly found as druzy. |
