Most Quartz is more than 99.5% chemically pure, more than most other minerals. Pure Quartz, sometimes called Rock Crystal or Clear Quartz, is completely transparent. Phantoms can be seen in this crystal at the base, indicating slight changes to its immediate environment occurred during stages of growth. Lemurian Quartz is highly valued for its purity, its amazingly clear, striated appearance, and rarity. Lemurian Quartz crystals offer a direct connection with the innate feminine wisdom and intuition of ancient Lemuria.
 
Colombia offers the most pristine and sought-after Lemurian crystals known, but they exist in finite quantities. Minas Gerais, Brazil is known worldwide for its Quartz and Amethyst, and there are a select few locations that have produced very high quality Lemurian Quartz. With some experience it is possible to distinguish not only a Lemurian Quartz crystal from other high quality quartz crystals, but also their Colombian origin simply by close inspection.
 
While some practitioners use high quality quartz universally for meditative and cleansing purposes, others will insist on Lemurian Quartz exclusively. The wispy termination on the crystals from this find in Colombia are quite bright.
