A variety of Quartz
A name in common trade use for a pink/purple translucent to opaque variety of quartz, possibly containing inclusions of a lithium-rich mineral such as lepidolite - however it could equally be a misleading/incorrect name, and should be regarded a simply a coloured quartz until further investigation on this material is done.
