Extract

Examples of quartz twinned on a face of the primary rhombohedron R are extremely rare. Only three isolated examples have so far been recorded. The first was observed by Q. Sella; but as his crystal could not be measured, owing to its position on the matrix, it is of only slight importance as evidence of this mode of twinning of quartz.
