Did you know that, in 1967, Governor Winthrop Rockefeller signed an act stating that the quartz crystal would become the official mineral for the State of Arkansas? Our state has high-quality quartz rivaled only by that found in Brazil and Madagascar.
This quartz was scanned and imaged by Manon Wilson and Lyndon Colvin. You can dig crystals yourself at many of the mines located in the Ouachita Mountains. Read more about it here: http://www.quartzpage.de/ark.html
