The pink colouring in Rose Quartz is due to the presence of the minerals titanium, iron or manganese. In the 1880’s they discovered that quartz has what are known as, ‘piezoelectric properties’. Quartz crystals still play an important role in our everyday life. They are used in everything from wrist watches, to the electronics industry. Rose Quartz is produced in a number of countries.
