SCIENCE
Colour: Pale pure pink through to mid rosy pink. Stones show a characteristic cloudy translucence due to microscopic inclusions of aligned silicate mineral fibres that are also responsible for the rosy hue.
Geological occurrences: India, Brazil, Madagascar, South Africa
Crystallography: Rose quartz forms in large masses rather than prismatic crystals as it typical for other macro quartz varieties. Crystals do occur in a couple of small deposits and are extremely rare. These crystals are called ‘pink quartz’ and are owe their colour to a different mechanism.
Internal observations: The fibrous colouring inclusions, when aligned at 120 to one another, can produce an asterism (6-pointed star) when cut into domed shapes. Crystals can show a banding of white and pink areas due to large-scale healed fractures caused by geological movement. Healed fractures often show iridescence (rainbows) on their surfaces. Colour is often patchy and can show banding of white and pink colours.
Crystal care: Rose quartz can fade in direct sunlight, so keep off windowsills or any area that has sun shining too brightly.
