Amethyst and citrine are two of the most popular gemstones used for healing. So yeah, the earth does give some fucks about how some things look.For centuries, people have believed in the healing properties of gemstones. These things do make a difference in terms of what is and is not citrine.
They follow the si02 composition as variants of quartz, but natural citrine alongside being heated in the earth for ages, also has oxidized iron. Natural citrine has the same tone throughout, while HTA has the tone change on the top of the stone that was once purple - there is even cases of the orange fading back to purple over time.įurthermore, amethyst and citrine are not the same on a chemical level. Orange citrine CAN exist, but it's only found in Brazil, is even more expensive than regular citrine and is called Madeira citrine specifically. Natural citrine can appear dark and smokey, but that is much harder to find than the more common pale champagne to soft yellow. If you're going to attempt a reply like this, at least be someone who educates others and points out where the commenter fell short, because in this case, you end up looking subpar and rude yourself.Ĭitrine forms in clusters, sometimes confused for geodes. Both citrine and iron quartz have iron but they're not the same, just.distantly related. All of this is to say, the different factors in the creation of the crystal in question is what makes something clear, smokey, amethyst, citrine or even just iron inclusion quartz lol.
It's also a lot of complex science that explains the colour changing factors of each quartz variant lol. Amethyst DOES have iron (majority of quartz does!), but it's not the single inclusion to create the colour either. You can also get smokey citrine via heating smokey quartz sometimes too. There's definitely evidence of aluminium being a factor for citrine, but iron is the more common colour changing factor. It's natural citrine that has oxidized iron inside of it. "Colloidally suspended hydrous iron oxide gives citrine its colour." "Because the color is now caused by finely distributed iron minerals (mostly hematite and goethite), heated amethyst is not citrine in the strict sense, and also shows no dichroism in polarized light."
