Cherry Tanzurine, also known as Raspberry Quartz, is a recently discovered stone consisting of one of the most pure Quartz and either Lepidolite (cherry) or Fuchsite (emerald). Because of the purity of the Quartz, the included minerals are able to fill these stones with vibrant colour as if it were water. The deep reds and vibrant greens of Tangerine Quartz are totally natural and create a truly unique stone. Found on Massai tribal land deep in the bush in Northern Tanzania.

Tanzurine is the perfect example of Quartz’s ability to act as an amplifier. You can really see how the Quartz brings to life the colours of Lepidolite and Fuchsite. In Tanzurine, Quartz is the conduit for these minerals, showcasing their colourful complexity in a way that hasn't been seen before.

Lepidolite is a lilac-gray or rose-colored mineral that belongs to the mica group. It is composed mainly of lithium, potassium, and aluminum. Lepidolite is typically found in granite pegmatites, which are coarse-grained igneous rocks formed from cooling magma. It is primarily mined in locations such as Brazil, Russia, the United States, and Madagascar.

In terms of appearance, lepidolite often occurs in massive or granular form, with a pearly or vitreous luster. It is commonly translucent to opaque and may exhibit a range of colors, including shades of purple, pink, and gray. Some specimens of lepidolite contain inclusions of other minerals, such as quartz or tourmaline, adding to their visual interest. Lepidolite is also known for its characteristic scaly texture, which is a result of its layered crystal structure.
