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 with well-developed terminations.
The purple coloration of amethyst is caused by trace amounts of iron combined with natural irradiation during crystal growth. Quartz crystals are among the most studied and widely collected mineral species.
