Quartz from the Palermo #1 pegmatite in North Groton, New Hampshire typically occurs as clear to smoky hexagonal crystals with a bright vitreous luster, formed in pockets within a complex granitic pegmatite. These quartz crystals are often found attached to or associated with mica-rich schist, the layered metamorphic host rock composed mainly of mica and quartz, sometimes with sillimanite.

The site has been mined for various materials since 1863, including mica, beryl, and feldspar, and is now primarily known for its rich specimen variety, though it is not open to individual collecting.
