Rutilated Quartz
Rutilated
quartz, is a type of quartz with needle like rutile (a titanium dioxide
mineral), embedded in it. The rutile needles can be reddish, or they may be
golden, silvery, or on very rare occasions, greenish. Rutilated quartz is found
in Australia, Brazil, Kazakhstan, Madagascar, Norway, Pakistan and the United
States.
Rutile is a
major ore of titanium, which is a metal used for high tech alloys. It often
forms needle-like crystal inclusions inside quartz. This form of quartz is known as Rutilated Quartz
and it looks like small bars of imbedded gold.
Rutile is a 6 on the Mohs scale.
Because of
the difference in hardness between the two materials and because of the way
rutile forms inside, this can be a difficult stone to attain a smooth surface
without pits.
The name
quartz comes from the Saxon word “Querklufterz” which meant cross vein ore. The
name rutile comes from the Latin word “Rutilus” meaning red.
