Ametrine also known as Trystine or by its trade name as Bolovianite, is a naturally occurring variety of Quartz. It is a mixture of Amethyst and Citrine zones of purple and yellow or orange. Almost all commercially available Ametrine is mined in Bolivia and more affordable specimens like this have received some degree of heat treating.
The colour of the zones visible within Ametrine are due to differing oxidation states of Iron within the crystal. The Citrine segments have oxidized iron while the Amethyst segments are unoxidized. The different oxidation states occur due to there being a temperature gradient across the crystal during its formation.
The discovery of Ametrine can be traced back to the Anahi Mine in Bolivia during the 17th century. The Anahi Mine is still the most famous source of high quality Ametrine crystals, however, small deposits of Ametrine have also been found in other locations around the world, including Brazil, Russia, and Zambia.
Ametrine holds many of the energetic properties of Amethyst and Citrine, such as the tranquility and peace of Amethyst and the creativity and joy of Citrine.
The duality of Ametrine represents balance – the balance of feminine and masculine energies, your personal and work life, as well as your light and dark Ametrine can help you focus your mind and will bring you clarity. Use this combination crystal for self-discovery and decision making, it will help you to see things from multiple perspectives.
The material quality and size can vary widely depending on the location of the deposit and the specific geological conditions in that area, as with most materials.
Ametrine is an ideal stone to keep nearby while working or studying. It enhances learning by increasing mental clarity, deepening concentration and improving problem solving abilities. Its energetic vibration inspires a creative flow of new ideas and strengthens your focus when putting a plan into action.
Detoxifying the body and mind, it clears negative emotional programming by releasing blockages from the aura. Promoting a sense of overall well-being, it breaks self-defeating habits and offers support when overcoming all types of addictions.
