  2. Herkimer diamond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herkimer_diamond

    Inclusions can be found in these crystals that provide clues to the origins of the Herkimer diamonds. Found within the inclusions are solids, liquids (salt water or petroleum), gases (most often carbon dioxide), two- and three-phase inclusions, and negative (uniaxial) crystals. A black hydrocarbon is the most common solid inclusion. [6]

  3. Jasper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jasper

    Jasper, an aggregate of microgranular quartz and/or cryptocrystalline chalcedony and other mineral phases, [1][2] is an opaque, [3] impure variety of silica, usually red, yellow, brown or green in color; and rarely blue. The common red color is due to iron (III) inclusions. Jasper breaks with a smooth surface and is used for ornamentation or as ...

  4. Quartz - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartz

    Quartz. Quartz is a hard, crystalline mineral composed of silica (silicon dioxide). The atoms are linked in a continuous framework of SiO 4 silicon–oxygen tetrahedra, with each oxygen being shared between two tetrahedra, giving an overall chemical formula of SiO 2. Quartz is, therefore, classified structurally as a framework silicate mineral ...

  5. Rutilated quartz - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rutilated_quartz

    Rutilated quartz used as a gemstone. Rutilated quartz is a variety of quartz which contains acicular (needle-like) inclusions of rutile. [1] It is used for gemstones. These inclusions mostly look golden, but they also can appear silver, copper red or black. The inclusions may be distributed randomly or in bundles, which sometimes are arranged ...

  6. Moss agate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moss_agate

    The field is a clear or milky-white quartz, and the included minerals are mainly oxides of manganese or iron. It is not a true form of agate, because it does not have concentric banding. [2] Moss agate can be clear or milky white, with green dendritic inclusions that resemble moss. The colors are formed due to trace amounts of metal present as ...

  7. Inclusion (mineral) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inclusion_(mineral)

    Inclusion (mineral) In mineralogy, an inclusion is any material trapped inside a mineral during its formation. In gemology, it is an object enclosed within a gemstone or reaching its surface from the interior. [1] According to James Hutton 's law of inclusions, fragments included in a host rock are older than the host rock itself. [2][3]
