Rutile Quartz

Rutilated quartz is a variety of quartz which despite not being as 'pure' as more well-known quartz varieties, such as amethyst, are valued for their 'inclusions'. These inclusions are needle-like strands which are often reddish or golden in appearance and it is these 'rutiles' from which the name derives. The inclusions may be distributed randomly or in bundles, which sometimes are arranged star-like, and they can be sparse or dense enough to make the quartz body nearly opaque. While otherwise inclusions often reduce the value of a crystal, rutilated quartz is valued for the quality of these inclusions
