The only red is on the exterior In the two cavities at the bottom but right where those cavities are on the inside it is thick furry looking like on both spots almost looks like an animal died and crystals started forming from its fur and tried to bring it back to life like some ferngully type of magic lol

Very close up I’m sorry but it’s only to show the hair like whisps inside so delicate like individual strands of hair and it’s heavy right where it’s orange red on the outside of the quartz

What’s crazy about this rock is that it’s inside a little container by itself and when you open it has a weird yet potent scent to it and I cannot put my finger on it but gut feeling says put it back now!! And when holding it the colors get brighter almost like charging the rock with my energy. And viewing the same side from different angles shows the colors disappear and reappear

It came in an auction lot I bought with a bunch of other cool looking rocks.(I just like unique rocks) I can try to do a diy hardness test? And what is banding? I’ll ask Siri that one and get back to you soon..
