Amethyst

Amethyst is a quartz purple type; Its chemical formula is SiO2.

In the 19th century, the color of amethyst was believed to be due to the presence of manganese. Although it can be greatly modified and can be loaded with heat, some authorities believe that its color comes from organic sources. Feric wasocetenet was suggested and the presence of sulfur in minerals was said to be proven.

Recent work suggests that the color of the amethyst is due to the ferric iron discovery. More studies have shown that the complex interaction of iron and aluminum is responsible for its color.

Heat-giving amethyst usually becomes yellow, and most of the ornaments of orchard, citric, or yellow quartz are simply burnt amethysts. Amethystine quartz veins are clever to leave their color on open space.

Artificial amethyst is made to imitate the best quality amethyst. Its chemical and physical properties are so similar to the natural amethyst that it can not be specifically marked separately without sophisticated geological testing. (Which often proves to be expensive too) is a test based on Brazil Low Twining to easily detect artificial amethyst. (Brazil is a form of twinning quartz twinning in which left and right-handed quartz structures are attached to a crystal) However, it is possible to artificially create this substance in theory but it is not available in large quantities in the market.

Composition
Amethyst is made from an irregular indication of the timepiece of the quartz of left and right sides. It has been shown that this structure could be due to mechanical stress.

Amethyst is suitable for use in jewelry as it has seven stamens on Moh Scale.

Myths
The Greek word a-, not + methustos, can translate the Greek word amethystos from Kaif into alcoholic drink. Amethyst was considered a substance suppressant substance that often used wine globlets. Dionysus Amethystos, a Greek goddess of heroine and wine, was behind the Greek legend. Amethysts refused to accept the love of Dionysus. Amethysts prayed to God to remain pure, to whom Goddess Artimus had accepted and made it white stone. Impressed by Amethystos's feeling of being pure, Dionysus poured the wine on the stone as an ancillary and the color of the crystal was changed to purple.

There are many stories in this regard, one of which is that the soul invented Dionisus, which plagued the wrath of any other soul that came out of its way and created a vicious tiger to dispel it. This soul became a beautiful young woman Amethystos. Amethysts was going to pray Artemis. Artificial life gave amethystos and converted it into a statue made of pure crystalline quartz to save it from brutal atrocities. Dionysus wins the wine of repentance after seeing the beautiful statue. Then God's tears made the quartz purple. Another story is that Titan Rahia has donated Amethyst to Dionysus to maintain the mental balance of drinkers.

A fine fine amethyst is found in Russia, especially near Mercenca in the Ekaterinburg district. Here it is found in granite rocks. Amethyst is also found in many parts of India.
