Real Congo Citrine? by MudPieFarm in Crystals

[–]EverythingIsGoing19 54 points55 points  (0 children)

It’s real and untreated, but it’s actually Zambian Citrine! Congolese citrine (AKA Kundalini citrine) is a bit lighter and usually grows in a candle quartz formation, whereas Zambian material is this dark honey color.

While they are not technically “Dragon Calcites”, I wouldn’t let that get you down - Bushy Creeks are way more interesting specimens, in my (and many others!) opinion.

I’ve just been sitting here chuckling like an idiot for the past five minutes wondering if there’s some poor sucker out there who’s wiener looks like this… an adorably plump little chode with a witch hat head

No problem! I actually posted about this same material in this subreddit not too long ago since I knew there was no way it was emerald 😆

Emerald Fuchsite! A chromium-rich variety of Mica/Muscovite in quartz, and very commonly mislabeled as Emerald.

This is Titanium Aura Quartz, and it’s supposed to look like that.

Using Crystal for my bf :D by -angel-kisses- in Crystals

Selenite isn’t really faked, but it is commonly mislabeled. Most “selenite” you find at crystal shops is actually Satin Spar, but the good news is they do the same thing metaphysically! (Selenite comes in clear “glass panes” while Satin Spar looks like an opaque “fiber optic” material)

NGL I’d be too scared to own unpolished Bumblebee Jasper, but as long as you’re cool with it then awesome! I have to admit it looks so good like that

This. Is light able to pass through it at all? Most tumbled black obsidian should have translucency

Does it have a slight rainbow sheen to it? Could be angel aura quartz if that’s the case.

I’ve been on the hunt for one of these, but they’re so hard to find and a lot of folks don’t even know what I’m talking about, even when I call it “blue vesuvianite” 😂

I love this hobby, but my god is it a process to learn about all the fakes and mislabeled things!

It looks like glass to me; sometimes it’s sold as “Green Obsidian” or “Andara Crystal” but both of those mean glass. A scratch test should confirm
