Phantom Quartz is a clear Quartz crystal that exhibits within the crystal body an outline of a smaller version of the same crystal. Phantom Quartz formations can be various colors, depending on the minerals deposited. This image is the 'footprint' of an earlier stage in the crystals growth, at which point the colored material was deposited, before the crystal began to grow again. Sometimes there are multiple 'phantoms' which depict many past stages in the crystals growth process.
