Herkimer diamond (quartz)
The Herkimer diamond has the same composition as pure colourless quartz or rock crystal . What makes it special is its shape, which resembles a polished gemstone: it has an unusual 18-faceted form. It is called a diamond for its wonderful purity and brilliance as well as its geometric structure which is in fact similar to that of real diamonds. Named after the village of Herkimer in New York County, this mineral is also found in Canada, China, England and Germany. There may also be some interesting feathering and inclusions present in these crystals.
