Strawberry Quartz Pendant

Strawberry quartz forms in veins, rock cavities, and hydrothermal veins, where silica-rich environments promote quartz crystallization. The stone's pinkish color and small grains come from inclusions of minerals like iron oxide, titanium, manganese, hematite, and lepidocrocite. 
 
Strawberry quartz is often confused with rose quartz, but strawberry quartz has a darker pigment due to the inclusion of iron oxide, hematite, goethite, or lepidocrocite flakes.
