Rutilated quartz is a variety of quartz which contains acicular (needle-like) inclusions of rutile. It is used for gemstones. These inclusions mostly look golden, but they also can look silver, copper red or deep black. They can be distributed randomly or in bundles, which sometimes are arranged star-like, and they can be sparse or dense enough to make the quartz body nearly opaque. While otherwise inclusions often reduce the value of a crystal, rutilated quartz is valued for the quality and beauty of these inclusions.

ACTUAL AS SEEN: The image shows the EXACT specimen you will receive. The specimen has been carefully hand selected and photographed. Measurements are as accurate as possible, though be aware measuring precise dimensions can be difficult from irregular shaped items. Whilst we portray colours as close to life-like as we can, colours will vary if taken in sunlight, indoors, from monitor to monitor and device to device. Once this specimen is sold, we will update this listing with new similar selected item, with a new photo and dimensions.

**Safety Caution**

Some Minerals and Crystals can contain natural traces of toxic compounds, after all, minerals are natural ores and used widely for the extraction of chemicals and compounds. For your safety we suggest you fully research the Minerals & Crystals you wish to purchase before placing an order for the items. We also recommend ensuring you wash your hands thoroughly after handling such specimens. Most Minerals and Crystals are safe in their solid state, yet some can be hazardous if broken down, so we strongly advise against grounding, crushing or breaking of the specimens purchased from our website.

  • Scientific Note: Rutilated Quartz has been studied for both its aesthetic and piezoelectric properties. The rutile inclusions form due to differences in crystallization timing and temperature gradients. It is not classified under a biozone, as it is not biological in origin.


Metaphysical Properties:

Rutilated Quartz is widely known as an energizing and illuminating stone. It is said to accelerate manifestation, strengthen willpower, and promote spiritual growth. Golden rutile inclusions are believed to amplify the properties of quartz and enhance one’s connection to higher consciousness. Frequently used with the solar plexus and crown chakras, it is favored by healers and energy workers.
