Hi — I've seen lots of quartz xls in southern Indiana geodes with the pseudo-cubic habit — they're really Doug's suggestion No. 2, rombohedral terminations. Sometimes they get encrusted with chalcedony, which gives (I guess) pseduo-cubic pseudomorphism!! <g> Regards, Dick G.

Hi, Dick– This is interesting – I will have to recheck my Indiana geode with cubes I therefore assumed were fluorite. –Doug
