Today's Beauty. Update.. Looks like a St Albans :) :)

I had a second rotator cuff repair surgery last Monday and have had cabin fever since. Today, Charlie and I were able to get out for a few minutes and look what we found :) Any thoughts on the identity will be greatly appreciated. I have a lot of white quartz but not one like this. Thanks in advance and I hope that you are all well, safe and happy!

Nice find man. I think bifurcate is a safe guess but with what looks like heavy grinding and shoulders I think Dalton is a possibility. I know that typically the shoulders are the widest part of a Dalton usually but it's not always the case imo.

Re: Today's Beauty. I LOVE the white quartz in Virginia :)

Thanks guys!! :D When I first saw this.... I thought that it might be a St. Albans but then...... hmmmmm. I was hoping that it was because I have only found one of those since my addiction began. That first one is a favorite of Molly's :wink: I took a good look.... put it against my St. Albans and..... I believe that you are right!!! ;D ;D I think that's what it is :icon_thumleft: Thanks again and wow........ did my shoulder pain disappear fast when I saw this baby. Sadly.... its back again haha. Stay safe and good hunting.

I do hope that yours (shoulder) is doing great now. My right side was done first and I dont think that one is ever gonna be the same. This time it was my left but the doc said that the dammage was not as bad as the right so..... there is hope :wink: Thanks for the post and stay safe!

Thanks for the comment ;D I do not know about your area, but here in Virginia.... this white quartz is what I consider the best material that was available in terms of beauty. The rest.... while cool points, are not as ornate as some other states. Especially when you start getting into the midwest, southwest and west, with material like obsidian and other volcanic glass. So...... yea..... I do love the white quartz here. Thanks again and stay safe.

looking at the first photo of that mighty pretty white quartz point, what would you about calling it a lecroy.
