Atomic Amethyst

This specific type of amethyst with a unique pattern of inclusions, often resembling a "spoked wheel" appearance, is formed when the crystal grows with alternating bands of clear quartz and areas containing higher concentrations of inclusions such as calcite and goethite. Most often formed in cavities within volcanic rocks where silica-rich fluids are present, allowing for crystal growth with alternating bands of clear quartz and inclusion-rich zones. This form of amethyst is associated with enhanced intuition, spiritual awareness, positivity and the ability to release negative habits. Approx.
