The geological formation of the Crystal Mountain

[edit]

Crystal Mountain is one of the most expensive mountains in the world. It looks like a small arch made of rocks, and when the sun shines on it, it sparkles and shines like a king's crown made of thousands of precious and colourful jewels in the middle of a desert. This masterpiece has become a treasure that everyone looking for money and wealth wants to find. This is why it draws so many international and local tourists, who usually want to see life through a rocky gem scattered in the most beautiful view.[1]

The Myth Of The Crystal mountain

[edit]

There are signs from the past that the area was made when a large meteorite hit the Earth and caused very high temperatures, which melted the rocks into pieces of valuable crystal.[1]
