Lodolite (quartz with inclusions)

Lodolite is a variety of included quartz, also known as garden quartz or landscape quartz, characterized by internal inclusions of minerals such as chlorite, feldspar, hematite, limonite, or other oxides. These inclusions create natural patterns resembling underwater landscapes, gardens, or mountains within the crystal. Composed mainly of silicon dioxide (SiO₂), lodolite typically appears as transparent to translucent quartz crystals, often originating from Brazil. Each specimen features unique designs formed by millions of years of crystal growth.
