BERYL   Locality: North Sugarloaf Mtn. Bethlehem, NH

Species:           BERYL
Locality:          North Sugarloaf Mtn. Bethlehem, NH
Specimen Size: 18 cm specimen with several beryl crystals in milky gray quartz and 1 cm zone of wine red danalite near top-right
Field Collected: Tom Mortimer
Catalog No.:
Notes: As noted by the Whittmore & Janules article "North Sugarloaf Mountain" in Rocks & Minerals vol. 65, No. 4, July - Aug, 1990, "Pale green, crude prismatic beryl crystals to 20 cm were found at the smoky quartz site, embedded in the quartz and feldspar,... closely associated with danalite."
As they are somewhat crudely formed, few of these beryls were saved by collectors. This is a representative example of the occurrence.
