White Quartz From Aouli Midelt Draa-Tafilalet Morocco
White quartz from Aouli in the Drâa-Tafilalet region of Morocco is highly prized for its clarity and aesthetic associations with other minerals like yellow fluorite, baryte, and hematite. These specimens are generally sourced from the famous Mibladen mining district, where hydrothermal veins have created pristine, lustrous, and well-defined crystal facets.
Because Aouli is known for its diverse geology, this quartz often appears in striking formations. You frequently find it as a matrix or clustered alongside golden-yellow fluorite cubes, deep red hematoid quartz, or contrasting gray baryte. Prices for these Moroccan quartz specimens vary widely based on crystal size and inclusion type, ranging from about $30 for smaller clusters to several hundred dollars for larger, cabinet-sized mineral specimens.
