Lustre:Vitreous
A variety of Quartz

A rose-pink variety of Quartz, usually found massive, however crystals have been found rarely in pegmatite environments.

Recent research indicates that the colour of much Rose Quartz may be due to microscopic inclusions of a fibrous mineral, such as Dumortierite or a related species (Goreva et al., 2001; Ma et al., 2002; Kibar et al., 2007).
