4.16 Ct. Citrine from Brazil

The lovely citrine gemstone currently offered by The Natural Gemstone Company is a true marvel of nature and a testament to the earth's incredible geological history. Spanning millions of years, the formation of this stunning mineral began beneath the earth's crust, amidst intense heat and pressure, coinciding with the birth of mountain ranges and the shifting of tectonic plates. Over time, the cooling and solidification of mineral-rich hydrothermal solutions led to the crystallization of quartz, of which citrine is a prized variant. Deep within the earth, citrine developed its characteristic vibrant yellow hues, a process heavily influenced by natural elements and peculiarities in chemical composition, principally owing its coloration to traces of iron.
