White Quartz or Transparent Quartz, also called Rock Crystal, is a variety of colorless crystalline quartz. It is composed of silicon dioxide, belongs to the group of silicates-tectosilites, and its hardness is 7 on the Mohs scale. Quartz crystals usually have the shape of a hexagonal prism with pyramidal faces at its ends. They can be isolated in double pointed or in clusters forming maclas, drusen or geodes.
Formerly the Rock Crystal was used for the elaboration of containers and valuables. Shamanic traditions consider it a stone of light, conscience and clairvoyance. Thanks to its optical and piezoelectric properties quartz has been used in the elaboration of lenses and electronics, although currently most Transparent Quartz is used for ornamentation and healing.
