I'm not sure what your question is, or if there even is one, but you have Hematite/Quartz/Iron Oxide.... I've collected plenty of similar specimens,

O apologize I just needed help identifying ! thank you so much!

looks like a nice piece, did you find it yourself?

My best guess is golden limonite on smokey quartz cluster, just a guess though...

Yes, I found it a swap meet among a lot of other specimens of various crystals. I am not on the exciting venture of identifying all of them.
