Hurum

Locality: Citrine locality, Sætre, Hurum, Buskerud, Norway

A contact twin citrine crystal with a hexagonal hole going through the top of the crystal.
The crystal was found in 1999 in the same pocket as the citrine crystals with smoky phantoms. In the same pocket two eroded aquamarine crystals were found togather with the citrine crystals.
The hexagonal hole through the crystal is covered with a dark grey shining mineral that looks like stilpnomelane, but this has not been verified. The same mineral is also present at the base of many of the citrine crystals.
