Scientific information: The smoky hue of this quartz is the result of natural irradiation, which alters the crystal structure and darkens the color. The green chlorite crystallizations are caused by the inclusion of chlorite minerals during the quartz's growth.
Photos: The photos are taken under strong lighting to prevent any alteration of the specimen’s natural colors. It is recommended to display the minerals in well-lit environments to fully appreciate their hues.
Crystal therapy: Many believe minerals like this quartz with green chlorite possess healing properties. In crystal therapy, the quartz enhances energy amplification and balance, while the green chlorite is considered to support cleansing and protective energies, promoting emotional healing.
Shipping: Shipping is typically processed the day after the order, with tracking provided. Special care is taken in packaging. Orders from the same customer will be combined, and any excess shipping fees will be refunded as agreed.
