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-tectosilicates, and its hardness is 7 on the Mohs scale. Quartz crystals normally have the shape of a hexagonal prism with pyramidal faces at their ends. They can be found isolated in double points or in groupings forming twins, drusen or geodes.

Formerly the Rock Crystal was used for the elaboration of containers and valuables. Shamanic traditions consider it a stone of light, of consciousness and clairvoyance. Thanks to its optical and piezoelectric properties, quartz has been used in the manufacture of lenses and electronics, although currently most Transparent Quartz is used for ornamentation and healing.
