Mineral Identification & Crystal Classification

Amethyst is the purple variety of Quartz, composed of silicon dioxide (SiO₂). It belongs to the tectosilicate mineral group and crystallises in the trigonal crystal system. In its natural state, Amethyst typically forms six-sided prismatic crystals with pointed terminations.

The purple colour of Amethyst is caused by trace amounts of iron within the crystal structure, combined with natural irradiation during formation. Colour intensity can range from pale lilac to deep violet, sometimes displaying natural zoning where darker and lighter bands are visible within the stone.

Quartz has a Mohs hardness of 7, making it a durable mineral suitable for carving and polishing. The surface of this angel carving displays a vitreous lustre, with areas of translucency depending on the internal structure and inclusions of the original crystal.

Geological Formation

Amethyst commonly forms in hydrothermal veins and volcanic geodes, where silica-rich fluids slowly crystallise within cavities in rock. Over extended geological time, these fluids deposit layers of quartz, allowing crystals to grow inward from the cavity walls.

Significant global sources of Amethyst include Brazil, Uruguay, Madagascar and parts of Africa. Regardless of origin, Amethyst develops under stable temperature and pressure conditions that allow its characteristic purple colour to form within the quartz lattice.

Natural inclusions, faint internal fractures or colour zoning may be visible, reflecting the stone’s geological history and confirming its authenticity as a natural mineral.
