One of the most iconic smoky quartz localities in Australia, Mooralla, Southern Grampians Shire, Victoria. This locality, which is a designated fossicking area, has produced many stunning smoky quartz specimens since the 1960s. They occur often on a bed of small clear quartz in miarolitic cavities in rhyolite. This one was collected by me many years ago and is small for the location, only 32mm wide. I think it is time for another visit!
