JFD12AN5: Quartz (variety amethyst) is not rare in the mining districts of Murcia, but the quality is usually not very high. Perhaps the least known locality is the one located on the Cerro del Águila, from which came thick crystals, somewhat more intense in color than the better known ones in the Los Pajaritos Ravine area.
This one is a good example of this and despite the fact that the images may appear to show a damaged side of the tip, it is in reality a ribbed shape of natural origin.
