Uncertain. If you have topaz, do a hardness test to rule out quartz.

The "blue" stone look like it has a "sugary" "grainy" look to it, I don't know if that is from the camera or the actual rock. Really tough call from these pics.

thank you Eu_citzen ,IAMZIM,stdenis_jd,
the crystals have quartz on the outside but inside are like honey, other pic, the crystal sizes do not exceed 8mm

I brought back a small sample from far and I want to know if I return or not.thanks :laughing7:

If you want to know if it's worthwhile to return, do the test. Typically silica and corundum do not mix.
