i'm inclined to think crystal clear is better, but
you might just give milky white a try

interesting, arkansas has some of the best crystal

ouachita mountains | mt. ida | hot springs

rock hounding in arkansas: chapter on quartz
http://rockhoundingar.com/
http://rockhoundingar.com/quartz.html

you might learn something about crystal
in these pages that reveal some piece of
knowledge about their properties

hugh lovel stops by for crystal, no wonder
his pipes work
