Rutilated Quartz

description Rutilated Quartz Overview

Rutilated quartz is a variety of quartz containing visible needle-like inclusions of rutile, a titanium dioxide mineral. The needles can be golden, reddish, brown, or black and may occur singly, in intersecting groups, or in dense patterns within transparent to translucent quartz. Cut specimens are used in jewelry and mineral collections, with the internal inclusions providing the feature that distinguishes the material from ordinary clear quartz.
