Avanthurine

Avanthurine is one of the varieties of fine-grained quartz, deposits of which can be found in Chile, Norway, China, USA, Australia and other countries.

The color of aventurine varies from green, warm yellow, to blue, dark cherry and even black. In nature, it is more often found with golden, less often with silver-colored inclusions. The color of the inclusions is due to the natural shades of "dye" minerals (mica, hematite, goethite and others). Aventurine is also characterized by a glassy shine, which is successfully played up in jewelry.
