Crystals - Raw Citrinated Smoky Quartz Points
Origin - Minas Gerais Region, Brazil
Natural Citrinated Smoky Quartz is relatively rare and might form in regions where both smoky quartz and citrine naturally occur together or as part of the same geological environment
- Naturally, smoky quartz and citrine are varieties of quartz that differ due to trace elements or radiation exposure during formation. Smoky quartz gets its dark, smoky color from natural irradiation, while citrine derives its yellow hue from iron impurities.
- A crystal labeled "citrinated smoky quartz" forms when a quartz crystal exhibits a combination of smoky brown and yellowish citrine hues, either due to overlapping natural processes or specific geological conditions.
