Quartz with hematite
Quartz with Hematite – natural stone
Quartz with hematite is a unique mineral that combines the clarity of quartz with the orange and red inclusions of hematite. Quartz, chemically known as silicon dioxide, is characterized by its hardness of 7 on the Mohs scale and its glassy luster. The finest quartz with hematite stones are mined in Brazil. This mineral is very resistant to scratches and damage, making it ideal for jewelry and everyday wear. Hematite, which forms inclusions in quartz, typically appears as small grains or needles of iron oxide, giving the stone its characteristic red coloration.

Quartz with Hematite – color
Quartz with hematite is a stone of exceptional beauty. The main component of this stone is quartz, known for its transparency and glassy, shiny surface. Pure quartz is colorless or white, but in combination with hematite, it takes on a fascinating new appearance. Hematite inclusions, which give this stone its unique look, occur in various shades of red, orange, and black. These small grains or needles of iron oxide create beautiful patterns within the transparent quartz. Sometimes, these inclusions appear as tiny spots, while at other times, they form more complex, thread-like patterns resembling veins in marble. The red inclusions often resemble drops of blood, adding a dramatic character to the stone.
