We live on a quartz mountain. (yes, really) and I have been trying to identify pegmatite if any. I know it's very large crystals, but what else? Does anything else have to be mixed in too? Someone told me feldspar?
What makes you think trees can't grow out of a pegmatite? I have pics of a pegmatite that was under a tree's root system, where after it was knocked over by the wind. I dug and found very large smokey quartz and fedlspar crystals. Check out some of my links.http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/today-s-finds/421302-starry-night-crystal-pocket.html. (sorry don't know other way to "link" it, as I am a little computer illiterate...) The pegmatites I hunt for crystals on are covered with trees, unless I don't get your meaning...I dont think trees can grow out of pegmatite.
