PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Red Hematoid Quartz from Zambia is distinguished by its vibrant red to orange hues, caused by inclusions of Hematite and Iron Oxide within the crystal structure. Sourced from regions like Karoi, this striking stone often forms in clusters, nodules, or points, displaying a mix of translucent to opaque quartz with vivid, specular, or phantom-like red inclusions. Known by the Zambian locals as Fire Quartz, These specimens are particularly noted for their robust quality and similarity to material from the renowned Orange River deposits.
