Spotlight: Amethyst spirit quartz from South Africa
You will find many of these points on offered by merchants - particularly on on-line auction sites - advertising that these are clusters of amethyst, citrine and ametrine. Unfortunately, they are NOT. The yellowish coloring is caused by various hydrates that form between the base crystal and the druzy providing the coloring.
Ametrine is a naturally occurring quartz found in the area of Bolivia in South America. Special geological conditions allowed the crystal to form both citrine and amethyst in the same crystal. Because of aggressive mining, many cut ametrine gemstones are now lab created.
