Same text as the previous question posted, on artefacts to do with rain in different cultures.
minéraux qui, par leur aspect, évoquent la pluie ou les phénomènes météorologiques qui y sont liés : quartz translucide « génie de l’arc en ciel », obsidienne, concrétions de magnésie de Nouvelle Calédonie…
I guess this is something like "rainbow spirit" quartz crystal, but I haven't found anything to corroborate that. This could be posted as two different terms, but I think the whole phrase refers to one object which may be called something completely different in English. Thank you in advance for any ideas.
