Description:
Red Hematoid Quartz, also known as Fire Quartz, is a variety of quartz containing natural hematite inclusions. These inclusions create striking red to deep orange tones, contrasting with the translucent quartz body. Each piece is unique, showcasing natural variations in shape, color intensity, and inclusions.
Formation:
This mineral forms when quartz crystals grow alongside hematite deposits. The iron oxide from hematite integrates into the quartz during its crystallization, producing the distinct red coloration.
Function:
Ideal for collectors, decoration, or display. Its vivid tones and contrast make it a centerpiece in any mineral collection or natural stone arrangement.
Care:
-
Clean with a soft, dry cloth to preserve its natural luster.
-
Avoid abrasive cleaning materials that may scratch the surface.
-
Store in a safe location to prevent chipping.
