Rose Quartz A silicon dioxide crystal, Rose Quartz is one of the most common varieties of the Quartz family.It is found in abundance around the world and occurs only in massive form, with no crystal faces, edges or terminations.It is hazy to translucent and it's usually found in the cores of granite pegmatites. Its name is derived from its soft rose color, which ranges from very pale pink to deep reddish-pink and is due to trace amounts of titanium, iron, or manganese in the massive material. It also contains microscopic fiber inclusions of rutile or a borosilicate like Dumortierite that can occasionally produce a cats eye or star effect when polished into cabochons or spheres. The color of Rose Quartz is very stable and will not fade with heat or direct sunlight.
