Pagmatite is a common plutonic rock, of variable texture and coarseness, that is composed of interlocking crystals of widely different sizes. The most spectacular pegmatites contain abnormally large crystals mixed with medium sized and smaller crystals. Pegmatite is colourless, white, or pink. Some varieties also feature gray and cream shades. Within the pegmatite, you may also see different hues based on the presence of other minerals.
