Fibrous nanoinclusions in massive rose quartz: The origin of rose coloration

American Mineralogist, 2001
Pink nanofibers were extracted from rose quartz from 29 different pegmatitic and massive vein localities throughout the world. Their width varied from 0.1 to 0.5 μm. On the basis of optical absorption spectra of the fibers and the initial rose quartz, we conclude that these nanofibrous inclusions are the cause of coloration of massive rose quartz ...

A trapped-hole center causing rose coloration of natural quartz

Zeitschrift für Kristallographie - Crystalline Materials, 1983
Abstract In rose-colored natural quartz crystals two new hole centers were detected and analyzed by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR). A hole center with characteristic doublet and sextet hyperfine structures was identified as an O− ion bridging between a substitutional aluminum and phosphorus atom each.

Luminescent, optical and color properties of natural rose quartz

Radiation Measurements, 2007
Abstract Rose quartz is an interesting mineral with numerous impurities that have been studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray fluorescence (XRF), X-ray diffraction (XRD), cathodoluminescence (CL), ion beam luminescence (IBL), radioluminescence (RL), thermoluminescence (TL) and optical absorption (OA).

Fibrous nanoinclusions in massive rose quartz: HRTEM and AEM investigations

American Mineralogist, 2002
Pink fibrous crystals within massive rose quartz from localities in California, South Dakota, Brazil, Madagascar, and Namibia were examined with high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and analytical electron microscopy (AEM). This study reveals that the nanofibers in all samples are related to dumortierite.

The orientation and symmetry of light spots and asterism in rose quartz spheres from Madagascar

The Journal of Gemmology, 2006
The orientation of light spots on the surface of four asteriated rose quartz spheres from Madagascar is described. The up to 50 different light spots form similar patterns on all samples examined with respect to their orientation, but are somewhat different according to their relative intensity.

Dynamic biaxial absorption spectra of Ti3+ and Fe2+ in a natural rose quartz crystal

Mineralogical Magazine, 1985
AbstractThe absorption spectrum of Ti3+ in quartz is typical for that element in an octahedral site, except for the high oscillator strength of the band which indicates intensive charge transfer, most likely between a substitutional Ti4+ and an interstitial Ti3+.

Gamma-rays and heat-treatment conversions of point defects in massive rose quartz from the Borborema Pegmatite Province, Northeast Brazil

Physics and Chemistry of Minerals, 2017
An extensive characterization of trace elements and point defects in rose quartz from the Borborema Pegmatite Province (BPP) in the northeast of Brazil was carried out by complementary spectroscopic methods. The aim here was to document the change in the configuration of point defects into the quartz lattice induced by heat-treatment and ionizing ...
