Question:

How can I tell if my quartz is rose or amethyst?

I has a chunk of quartz and I'd like to know exactly what kind it is. If you want to know the back story, i'm building a Tesla coil, and wanted to know how the resonant frequency of the crystal in the electromagnetic field would effect me (crystal healing, I believe). Apparently, the frequencies of these quartz crystals are different (I just assumed that being quartz and of nearly the same color they'd be pretty much the same) oh well, help?

CaesarStone quartz surfaces are non-porous, they’re resistant to dangerous mold, mildew and bacteria. This is the same reason that quartz surfaces are often the choice of restaurants and hospitals. Caesarstone retains its beauty without sealants or waxes and is almost maintenance-free. Ideal for any interior space, Caesarstone stone surfaces have four times the flexural strength and double the impact resistance of granite while impressively outperforming marble.
I sell countertops for a major Chicago company. The 4 major brands of quartz produce countertops that are essentially identical in physical properties with the exception of color and grain. So , , , let price, appearance and warranty guide your decision. Of course, the reliability and experience of the fabricator is important, too. And, yes, quartz is a great choice for countertops.
Cambria is a good brand and comparable to Silestone. They offer a larger range of colors and just came out with some new great colors.
