Rose quartz is a type of
quartz which exhibits a pale pink to rose red hue.
The color is usually considered as due to trace
amounts of titanium, iron, or manganese, in the
massive material. Some rose quartz contains
microscopic rutile needles which produces an
asterism in transmitted light. Recent X-ray
diffraction studies suggest that the color is due
to thin microscopic fibers of possibly
dumortierite within the massive quartz.
In crystal form (rarely found) it is called Pink
quartz and its color is thought due to trace
amounts of phosphate or aluminium. The color in
crystals is apparently photosensitive and |

subject to fading. The first crystals were found
in a pegmatite found near Rumford, Maine, USA, but
most crystals on the market come from Minas Gerais,
Brazil.
It is not very popular as a faceted gem because
the stones are always cloudy, its pink color is
often too pale, and most Rose Quartz gems have
large flaws. When rose quartz is cut in cabochons,
or rounded into beads for necklaces or carved, it
is far more effective. |
