It was wow when we saw this Chevron Amethyst large tumbles on a business trip. The purple is an amazing colour – nice Royal Purple contrasting with the pure white. They display the wonderful banding which is why this is also known as banded amethyst.

I find this crystal is particular good for those people who tend to run on adrenalin as it slows/calms them down by helping them to come out of the busy mind and back to connecting to their body and the Earth. I have had several customers report that it does help dispense migraines and reduce insomnia. Read more on the Healing tab.

Geological Information

Geological Information for Amethyst
A member of the quartz family with iron in its crystal lattice being naturally irradiated to FE4+ creating purple colour, hence why the colour is uneven.
  • As the colour of amethyst is caused by iron-based colour centres, iron minerals are often companions of amethyst. Of those three, goethite, lepidocrocite, and hematite frequently occur as inclusions. If large amounts of FE3+ and FE4+ both exist in a piece you have citrine + amethyst which is called Ametrine.
  • Amethyst comes in some wonderful structures:
    • points and double terminators;
    • caves (and broken in to clusters)
      • Amethyst is grows with a matrix of agate or basalt.
    • clusters like clear quartz,
    • elestials;
    • fairy amethyst (very small druzy crystals emerging from the side of the main point);
    • spirit amethyst (side points are more visible to the naked eye);
    • cactus or pineapple amethyst (like spirit amethyst but the side points are quite large e.g.5-20% of the size of the main termination);
    • flowers and angel wings,
    • rosettes
    • layered with chevron patterning.

Specialised Varieties
Auralite-23
  • Not to be confused with geological mineral Auralite which has little information about it either. Auralite-23 is a trademark of Robert Simmons and geologists refute all the information being given in this section by the "channelling" of Robert. They believe it to just be an amethyst variation.

  • "Made up of at least 17 of the following 23 healing stones: Titanite, Cacoxenite, Lepidocrosite, Ajoite, Hematite, Magnetite, Pyrite, Goethite, Pyrolusite, Gold, Silver, Platinum, Nickel, Copper, Iron, Rutile, Limonite, Sphalerite, Covellite, Chalcopyrite, Gialite, Epidote, Bornite"
Brandberg Amethyst (also Brandberg Clear Quartz and Smoky Quartz)
  • From Namibia's highest mountain, Brandberg Mountain.

  • Grow like clear quartz clusters.
  • The crystals are collected by locals rather than formal mining.
