Lemon quartz is a type of quartz, a semi-precious stone that comes in many colors and varieties. It is mainly characterized by its unique yellowish-green hue which ranges from light lemony shades to deep golden hues. The coloring of lemon quartz results from the presence of mineral traces like iron oxides or hydrocarbons within the crystal structure. Amethyst is the flag bearer for the Quartz family of gemstones, which also includes citrine and prasiolite.The gem perfectly showcases all that this mineral has to offer, across a variety of hues from delicate light pinks to deep dark purples. Known for having eye clean clarity in many specimens and for being readily available in generous carat weights, Amethyst remains one of the most popular gemstones on the market.
