Small but cool and odd specific gravity for quartz

[Steve1236]

Hey everyone, I hope you all are feeling and doing well, I found a small specimen of those really clear translucent quartz crystals that form on some of my fire agate specimens that was big enough and wasn't attached to to much host to weigh for a specific gravity test and it's coming back at 2.8 specific gravity which is odd for quartz , just thought I'd share.

Here's some more close ups using a 45×loupe with LEDs, they actually don't turn out to bad, thought I'd share..

The SG is pretty close. Probably due to other minerals in the speci. Nice pics.
