Tangerine quartz is the crystal of glee and wonder. It stimulates curiosity, creativity, and playfulness, the vital ingredients of continuous learning and growth. This crystal is teeming with positive energy that instantly lifts the mood of anyone who touches it.
This orange-coloured variety of quartz is also known to increase the acceptance of self and the courage to break barriers that hinder self-development. And as a sacral chakra crystal, tangerine quartz activates desire and sexual pleasure.
Naturally occurring tangerine quartz is a silicon dioxide mineral and a variety of quartz. What gives the crystal its red to orange colour? This colouration is the result of the mineral hematite being encrusted in the quartz crystal.
As an iron stone, hematite rusts when combined with water. As it precipitates, hematite creates a rusty coating inside or on the surface of the clear quartz crystal. This is the orange colour we see. Tangerine quartz specimens can be light yellow to a deep rusty orange (almost the colour red).
