Isn't it?

I found this about it:

"One of the world's largest amethyst geodes, the Empress of Uruguay, is located in Australia's Crystal Caves. It stands an alarming eleven feet tall and is filled with magnificent, deep violet crystals. Try sitting in there. might be impossible to bear, with huge electromagnetic energy interaction between one's being and the geode!"

But, when I googled "Empress of Uruguay" I found another impressive amethyst geode:

Found in northern Uruguay, the Empress of Uruguay stands nearly 11 feet tall. Comprised of an outer rim of granitic rock, the cavernous inside is filled with deep purple crystal amethysts.

The picture doesn't show the same geode in my original picture.
Here's the website:

At any rate, the size is astonishing! And yes, they are genuine geodes!
