00:00In the Bisha region of southwest Saudi Arabia lies the enigmatic White Mountain, a striking

00:12contrast in a land of black peaks.

00:14Mount Asaira stands tall at 1,318 meters above sea level.

00:27This peak is surrounded by a vast mountain range, yet it stands apart.

00:33Its dazzling white color is a mystery among dark, rugged summits.

00:37How did it form?

00:38Why is it so unique?

00:43Its secret lies within.

00:45The mountain is home to Saudi Arabia's largest deposit of quartz and feldspar, making it

00:50unlike any other.

01:03Here the quartz tell its story.

01:05Red veins and grooves reveal the intense heat that endured during its formation.

01:11Born from basalt, the stone carries history in its patterns.

01:20These pieces are so pure they're almost transparent.

01:23Hold one to the light and the sun passes through, like a window into nature's craftsmanship.

01:35The sun's rays pass through the stone, proof of its purity, because it contains no other

01:41minerals.

01:45That's why we call it rock crystal, the finest and purest form of quartz.
