Its yellow to golden tones develop through natural heating and oxidation processes deep within the Earth over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis specimen displays classic signs of natural crystal growth, including uneven faces, internal fractures, and surface etching formed in mineral-rich environments. The slightly darker tones near the tip suggest variations in temperature or mineral concentration during formation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInternal inclusions and fracture lines are visible throughout the piece, formed as the crystal developed under changing pressure and environmental conditions. Some inclusions appear as iron-rich deposits, contributing to the warm golden hues.\u003cbr\u003eThe crystal’s translucency varies—clearer areas allow light to pass through, while more included sections appear cloudy or textured. These variations are completely natural and add to the uniqueness of the piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMineral: Quartz\u003cbr\u003eFormula: SiO₂\u003cbr\u003eColour: Pale yellow → deep amber\u003cbr\u003eCause of Colour: Iron impurities\u003cbr\u003eLustre: Vitreous (glassy)\u003cbr\u003eTransparency: Transparent → translucent\u003cbr\u003eStreak: White\u003cbr\u003eHardness: 7 (Mohs)\u003cbr\u003eFracture: Conchoidal\u003cbr\u003eCleavage: None\u003cbr\u003eDensity: ~2.65\u003cbr\u003eCrystal System: Trigonal\u003cbr\u003eHabit: Hexagonal prisms\u003cbr\u003eFormation: Igneous rocks \u0026amp; hydrothermal veins\u003cbr\u003eCommon Locations: Brazil, Madagascar, Russia\u003cbr\u003eOptical:\u003cbr\u003eRefractive Index: ~1.54–1.55\u003cbr\u003eWeak pleochroism\u003cbr\u003eExtras:\u003cbr\u003eNatural citrine is rare\u003cbr\u003eOften heat-treated amethyst\u003cbr\u003eColour usually more uniform than amethyst\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCondition\u003cbr\u003eRaw, natural formation\u003cbr\u003eVisible inclusions and internal fractures\u003cbr\u003ePartial termination with natural wear\u003cbr\u003eColour and clarity variations throughout\u003cbr\u003eIron inclusions present\u003cbr\u003eNo polishing, dyeing, or artificial enhancement\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCare Instructions\u003cbr\u003eHandle with care to avoid chips, especially at the tip\u003cbr\u003eClean gently using a soft brush or dry cloth\u003cbr\u003eAvoid prolonged direct sunlight exposure\u003cbr\u003eKeep dry and away from harsh chemicals\u003cbr\u003eStore separately to prevent scratches or damage\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Crystal Ballerz","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53663234163029,"sku":null,"price":22.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1039\/9295\/1125\/files\/rn-image_picker_lib_temp_aecd74b2-df64-45b3-a964-9a13472d09f2.jpg?v=1776339594","url":"https:\/\/crystalballerz.co.uk\/products\/natural-raw-citrine-point","provider":"Crystal Ballerz","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
