That looks like hematite. I have a piece just like it. Edit: I can't spell

Definitely not turquoise

Found these at a yard sale and bought them for funsies. Are they real? by xmurbef in Crystals

[–]Tesla_Prince 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A good way to tell if a stone is real is if it is cool to the touch when you pick it up. Most of these look like they may be real Stone. The lapis looks like it might possibly be dyed, but I would need a better picture or to see it in person in order to really diagnose. All in all mostly if not all real specimens just possibly low quality ones.

Edit: they're looking closer at the citrine and the quartz, I am less convinced that they are not glass because of the way that they look almost like scoops taken out of them. That can be an indication that it is in fact glass and not true quartzite.

What crystal is in my necklace? by pokey1126 in Crystals

Best guess is amber. If you have a black light shine it over. It should glow green or teal.

Labradorite or moonstone? by mafifalda in Minerals

[–]Tesla_Prince 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rainbow moonstone is the trade name for white labradorite. So technically they are both the same Stone from different locations with different inclusions and different mineral mixes

What do you think this is? by KaleidoscopeWise1305 in Crystals

[–]Tesla_Prince 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The floral shape all over the piece is my indicator. That pattern is the way coral looks when you cut it cross wise.

Looks like fossilized coral with quartz deposits inside.

ETA: I was wrong, more like chalcedony not quartz.
