This translucent Himalayan Quartz crystal is from Ganesh Himāl, a region in the Himalayan Mountain range near the border of Tibet and Nepal. This area is inaccessible for machinery or equipment - due to this, miners travel through the difficult terrain without large tools and hand mine each crystal from the Earth. This crystal has a glowing quality, with an intact termination. The remainder of the specimen is in perfect condition with crisp facets and distinct "barcode" striations often seen in Lemurian Seed crystals. It also includes a light layer of green Chlorite inclusion on the length of the surface of 2 of its faces. This unique crystal measures 60mm by 20mm by 18mm and weighs 23.02 grams.
Mount Ganesh is naturally shaped like an elephant and is named after the Hindu deity with an Elephant head as his own. Held sacred to the Nepalese people, these crystals are known by the Shamans of the area as the "Eyes of God". Each crystal is hand collected by the traveling Sherpas of the Himalayas, whose specialty is to traverse these mountain regions.
