High-quality, transparent sunburst rutile. The rutile inclusions are also very good. Sunburst rutile is a type of rutile quartz where the rutile needles radiate outwards from a black hematite (iron oxide) core. It is also known as "sun rutile" or "star rutile." This distinctive appearance gives it a "sun-like" name and is considered to be of high value. It is officially identified as "rutilated quartz" and is also popular as a stone for good fortune. Please note that there may be natural indentations and scratches characteristic of natural stones, so please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned. #SunburstRutile #HematiteInRutile #GoldRutile
