Natural Amethyst Stalactite Slice – Quartz Crystal from Brazil

Notonlyrocks
55,00
This natural amethyst stalactite slice is an authentic quartz crystal specimen from Brazil, offered for mineral collectors and private collections.
The specimen displays a classic amethyst stalactite structure with clearly visible concentric growth rings, a central quartz core, and a surface covered with fine amethyst druzy crystals. The color ranges from light to medium violet, typical for Brazilian amethyst stalactites, with good contrast between the crystalline outer zone and the inner agate-quartz layers.
This is a natural mineral specimen, completely untreated and not dyed. The slice is cut and lightly polished only on the flat surface to reveal the internal structure; the crystal surface remains natural and intact.
Such amethyst stalactite slices are valued by collectors for their geological structure, aesthetic appeal, and educational value. The piece is suitable for mineral collections, display cabinets, study collections, and decorative mineral displays.

Mineralogy

Amethyst is a violet variety of quartz (SiO₂), belonging to the silicate mineral class. It crystallizes in the trigonal crystal system and commonly forms prismatic crystals, druses, and stalactitic aggregates.
Amethyst stalactites form through layer-by-layer hydrothermal quartz growth, resulting in concentric zoning visible in cross-sections. The purple color is caused by trace amounts of iron and natural irradiation within the crystal lattice.

Origin

This amethyst stalactite slice originates from Brazil, one of the world’s most important sources of natural amethyst and quartz crystal specimens.
Brazilian amethyst stalactites are especially valued by collectors for their clear internal zoning, stable violet color, and well-developed druzy crystal surfaces. The geological conditions allow slow and uniform crystal growth, producing visually striking and collectible specimens.

Why Collect

Amethyst stalactite slices are highly desirable among mineral collectors and geology enthusiasts due to their unique growth structure and natural beauty.
Reasons to collect:
  • Natural stalactitic quartz growth
  • Visible concentric zoning and crystal structure
  • Untreated, authentic mineral specimen
  • Suitable for cabinet collections and educational displays
Each amethyst slice represents a natural geological process captured in solid crystal form.
