exhibit several variants such as banding, flow patterns, dendrites or
color variations. This results in what appears to be scenes or images in

purple. Upon exposure to heat, Amethyst generally becomes yellow, which some refer
to as Citrine or "burnt" Amethyst. It is widely distributed
as a mineral, but fine, clear specimens that are suitable for cutting as
ornamental stones.

Quartz is the second most common mineral in the Earth's
continental crust. It is mainly composed of Silica or Silica based minerals.
Although Quartz is known by a variety of names, the most important distinction
between types of Quartz is that of macro-crystalline, individual crystals
visible to the unaided eye, and micro-crystalline, where aggregates of crystals
are only visible under high magnification. There are many forms of Quartz
including Chalcedony, Amethyst, Citrine, and Carnelian which are results of
mineral impurities or heat treatments.

An Emerald is a highly valued gemstone and variety of the mineral
Beryl. Pure Beryl is colorless, but it is frequently tinted by impurities.
Emeralds are green from trace amounts of chromium and sometimes vanadium.
The name Beryl is derived from Greek which referred to a "precious
blue-green color-of-sea-water stone". Beryl of various colors is found
most commonly in granitic pegmatites, but also occurs in mica schists in
the Ural Mountains, and limestone in Colombia.
