Quartz

Quartz originally comes from the areas of Momeik (Kyaukme District, Shan State, Myanmar) and Mogok (Northern Myanmar). Quartz is known for its excellent transparency, clarity and it is slowly finding its way to the wider precious gem family. Although it is not common enough to become a major commercial jewelry stone, there is enough material for gem collectors and adventurous jewelry lovers to bring this lovely and underappreciated gem into their collections.
