Quartz, or rock crystal, is most commonly formed from the two most abundant elements in the earth's crust- silicon and oxygen. Quartz is colorless and transparent in its natural state. Colored specimens vary according to shade, transparency, size of crystals and crystal form. There are hundreds of unique quartz varieties including rose quartz, citrine and amethyst. |
