Smokey Quartz
is an alluring variety of the mineral quartz, celebrated for its enchanting
smoky-gray coloration. Its name is derived from its appearance, resembling the
hues of smoke-infused crystal.
During
the crystal’s growth, natural irradiation, typically caused by exposure to
radioactive elements in the surrounding environment, imparts the stone’s
characteristic smoky hue. This irradiation induces the formation of colour
centers within the crystal lattice, leading to the absorption and scattering of
light that results in the smokey appearance. The presence of trace elements,
such as aluminium or iron contributes to the coloration. These elements become
incorporated into the crystal lattice during the quartz’s crystallization,
adding depth and variation to the stone’s colour spectrum.
