Stichtite is a mineral, a carbonate of chromium and magnesium; formula Mg 6 Cr 2 C O 3 (OH) 16 ·4H 2 O.Its colour ranges from pink through lilac to a rich purple colour. It is formed as an alteration product of chromite-containing serpentine.
Lepidolite is a lilac-gray or rose-colored member of the mica group of minerals with chemical formula K(Li,Al) 3 (Al,Si,Rb) 4 O 10 (F,OH) 2. [2] [3] It is the most abundant lithium-bearing mineral [4] and is a secondary source of this metal. It is the major source of the alkali metal rubidium.
Charoite (/ tʃ æ r oʊ. aɪ t / CHAR-ow-ait) is a rare silicate mineral with the chemical composition K(Ca,Na) 2 Si 4 O 10 (OH,F)•H 2 O, first described in 1978.It is named after the Chara River, despite its being 70 kilometres (43 mi) away from the discovery place.
"Each crystal is like a source of pure energy, and that energy changes all the time. You must hold and listen to the crystal; crystals can give you whatever you need at a certain time of your life ...

Depending on the symmetry of a crystal structure (as determined by one of the 32 possible crystallographic point groups), crystals in that group may be forced to be isotropic (not birefringent), to have uniaxial symmetry, or neither in which case it is a biaxial crystal. The crystal structures permitting uniaxial and biaxial birefringence are ...
