Hollandite is an oxide of Mn and Ba, two elements that are very abundant in low-temperature hydrothermal solutions.

It has long been known that fine tufts of black hollandite appear within well-crystallized quartz crystals from the Anketsaketsa deposit in Madagascar. The quartz occurs in crystals from a few centimeters to about ten centimeters in length and a couple of centimeters in diameter. Black tufts of hollandite are included at the top of the crystals. These specimens were marketed especially for mineral collectors, while only a few gems were cut.

However, a few years ago, beautiful crystals of very transparent and clean quartz with inclusions of Hollandite were found in Brejinho, Bahia, Brazil. Also in Amethysts. The main characteristic of this hollandite is that it is presented in the form of pompoms.

All our pieces come from this deposit.

Features of this piece:

• Guaranteed authenticity: 100% natural amethyst quartz with hollandite of guaranteed origin.

• Color and appearance: Amazing amethyst quartz with hollandite inclusions. It is a rare piece because the hollandite is normally in fairly white quartz crystals. The quartz of this stone, however, is completely transparent and clean. Rare collector gemstone.

• Hardness: 7 on the Mohs scale.

• Cut: Faceted cushion cut gemstone. Cut in Brazil.
