More: Citrine, yellow to red-orange quartz, was once the Rodney Dangerfield of the gem world; its sheer abundance being responsible for this "no respect" treatment. That has begun to turn around somewhat in the last couple of decades as fashions have repeatedly emphasized earth tones and home shopping networks have marketed the various shades of citrine aggressively with catchy adjectives like "butterscotch" and "whiskey".
Actually, very little of the quartz which is mined is citrine. Natural stones tend to be pale yellow, often with smoky tones. The vast majority of citrine which is marketed is produced by heating smoky quartz, (which produces light to medium yellows,) and amethyst, (which produces stronger yellows and orange-red to orangey brown shades.) The treatment is usually done right at the mine, and is stable, and fully accepted within the gem trade. Recently, colorless quartz from some mines have been irradiated and heated to produce a neon, slightly greenish yellow, usually called Lemon Quartz. âEUR¦ In the past, it was commonplace for citrine to be given misnomers such as, "Brazilian topaz", "Madeira topaz," etc.
