Just please Tell Me Where I Can Buy It Thanks
Rose quartz is a type of quartz which exhibits a pale pink to rose red hue. The color is usually considered as due to trace amounts of titanium, iron, or manganese, in the massive material. Some rose quartz contains microscopic rutile needles which produces an asterism in transmitted light. Recent X-ray diffraction studies suggest that the color is due to thin microscopic fibers of possibly dumortierite within the massive quartz.
Having come from South Dakota, I was going to mention that one. There is some wonderful rose quartz there and some of it is gem quality and some even has some asterism meaning there are tiny inclusions of crystals that make a star. My minerally professor showed us where it could be found.
