Natural Rutile Quartz

Natural Rutile Quartz Rutiled Quartz is a stone produced by large inclusions of rutile needles in clear quartz. Rutilated quartz is sometimes used as a semi-precious stone or for carvings. This stone is produced because at high temperatures and pressure, n(SiO2)-n(TiO2) is in a stable state but as temperatures cool and pressure eases the two separate with rutile crystals trapped inside the quartz crystals.
