For your information:
- Ganesh Himal is a mountain range in the High Himalayas located in north-central Nepal. Its main peak, Yangra (Ganesh I), rises to over 7,400 meters in elevation. The range takes its name from the elephant-headed Hindu god, Ganesh, because the silhouette of its peaks resembles the form of this deity.
The Ganesh Himal region has yielded quartz crystals, some entirely chlorite-bearing, while others exhibit remarkable transparency and occur in association with albite, adularia, titanite, or other minerals typical of alpine fissures.
