Basic introduction of Honky

Ghost crystal chemical formula SiO2 (silicon dioxide)

Crystal system Hexagonal system Hardness 7 Specific gravity 2.60 Refractive index 1.54- 1.55 There are four main types of Brazilian ghost crystals, namely: green ghost, red ghost, yellow ghost and Honky. Heteromorphic crystals are also a member of the crystal family, whose main feature is that they contain some volcanic marl and other minerals. Phantom crystal is a real gift of nature, which was gradually formed thousands or even billions of years ago. Alien crystals are of course a member of the crystal family. The main crystal bases are white crystal, topaz or tea crystal, mostly white crystal. When its white crystals are formed, some minerals or volcanic mud may be covered by the forming white crystals due to crustal movement or volcanic eruption. If it contains green volcanic ash mud, it is called green ghost (green phantom crystal). Similarly, if it contains some white inclusions, it is called white ghost (white phantom crystal). If it contains more than one kind of inclusions, we call it a heteromorphic crystal. Now most of what we see on the market are green ghosts or Honky crystals, and most of the green ghosts are crystals with pyramids or fog levels inside. Fog levels are green, so they are called green ghosts. The reason of Honky is the same. It contains green volcanic marl and other connotations. In transparent white crystals, natural phenomena such as clouds, aquatic plants, eddies and even pyramids emerge. So far, no scholars and experts can explain why a complete pyramid exactly like the ancient Egyptian pyramid appears in the crystal. A thick and neat green shadow is actually a diary of geological changes! Nowadays, different crystal has been regarded as a must-have treasure for crystal collectors. In fact, it's quite subjective to appreciate different crystals, because it's impossible to find two identical different crystals in the world, so high-quality different crystals are just like antiques or treasures, and the market price is soaring or even sky-high.

Name: Crystal [1] shuǐ jīng English name: crystal rockcrystal Note: ㄕㄨㄟミㄐㄧㄥ Main component: silica, which is a precious mineral and gem. In addition, there are some associated minerals, such as chromium, manganese, copper, iron, etc., which produce many colors by refraction. Works: crystal ornamental stones, crystal sculptures, crystal ornaments, crystal balls, etc. , used for decoration, collection, town house to ward off evil spirits. Appearance crystal belongs to the tripartite crystal system, but many people mistakenly think that crystal is hexagonal crystal system, because crystal is often hexagonal prism, with one end pointed or two ends pointed. Crystals are usually larger, ranging from a few millimeters to several meters. Several crystals grow together, which is the so-called crystal cluster, which is beautiful and spectacular.

Description (1) colorless and transparent silica crystal. It is a precious ore and gem with less output. It was called "water jade" and "water essence" in ancient times. Quote "Zi Tong Zhi Jian Han Gao Zufu Two Years at the End of Jin Dynasty": "The Lord of Fujian built Wei Zi Palace, decorated with crystals." "The ancient and modern novel Li Gongzi was satisfied with saving the snake": "The utensils are all made of glass, crystal, amber and agate, which are unique and not owned by the world." Preface to < Selected Poems of Ai Qing >: "Meditate on the shape of flower dew and love the quality of crystal." (2) refers to the crystal clear object. "All Tang Poems" Volume Bai Xuege in 785: "Birds peck at the jade mirror in the ice pond, and the wind knocks on the eaves to slip the crystal." Wei's poem "Night Banquet in the Western Suburb" reads: "Cold and cold contain ice brains, and cherries fall into crystals." (3) Yu's Bright Moonlight. Hong Sheng's Song of the Immortal Palace in the Qing Dynasty: "The cold toad has just risen to the high shelf, and the curtain rolls to smell the wind and reflect the crystal." The words in Chen Weisong's "The Heritage Atlas of Bodhisattva Man Titing Qingxi" in the Qing Dynasty: "I still remember to hide and seek, and the crystal courtyard is cool."

Chemical crystal is a kind of large Shi Ying crystal. Its main chemical composition is silicon dioxide, and its chemical formula is SiO2. Western countries think that everything that is transparent is crystal, so the word crystal includes colorless transparent glass (K9, ordinary glass is blue) and rock crystal ore. There are more than ten kinds of names of ancient crystals in China, such as water mirror, aquamarine, aquamarine and crystal. Therefore, in order to facilitate the distinction, Rockcrystal is usually referred to as (rock crystal) in the world. The well-developed single crystal is a hexagonal cone, so it is usually a block or granular aggregate, which is generally colorless, gray and milky white. When it contains other mineral elements, it is purplish red, smoky red, brown and so on.

The crystal cluster is the perfect crystal of silica crystal; Incomplete crystallization is the appropriate time: silica becomes agate after gelatinization and dehydration; Water-containing silica gel becomes opal after solidification; When the particle size of silica is less than several microns, chalcedony, flint and secondary quartzite are formed. 1, chemical composition: silica, containing Si-46.7% and O-53.3%. Because it contains different mixtures, it presents a variety of colors. Purple and green are caused by iron (Fe2+) ions, purple can also be caused by titanium (Ti4+), and other colors are caused by color centers. 2. Associated mineral composition: goethite, hematite, rutile, magnetite, garnet, chlorite and other inclusions; Hair crystals are formed by inclusions containing hairy needle-like minerals visible to the naked eye. Containing manganese and iron is called amethyst; Iron (golden or lemon) is called topaz; Rose color containing manganese and titanium is called rose time, that is, pink crystal; Smoke color is called smoke crystal; Brown is called tea crystal; Black and transparent are called ink crystals. 3. Structure and morphology: The crystal with perfect crystallization belongs to the triangular system, often in the shape of a hexagonal prism, with one end pointed or two ends pointed. Many long columns are connected together, collectively known as crystal clusters, which are beautiful and spectacular, and their shapes can be described as various.

Maintenance: it needs to be soaked in filtered royal salt water every short time 1 day. If you write your wishes in the imperial edict and put them on the bowl, strange phenomena like roots can appear on the bowl for a long time.

Evaluation standard The evaluation standard of crystal is different from that of high-end gemstones. Most high-end gemstones put color first when evaluating, but for crystals, color and clarity (called crystal in the crystal industry) are almost equally important factors: 1, color: color is very important for any gemstone, and crystals are no exception. If the crystal is colored, such as pink crystal, topaz, amethyst, etc. The highest standard of color evaluation is bright and moving, and there are no other shades such as gray, black and brown. Such as pink crystal, the color is better with pink; Amethyst, bright purple in color, pure but not black; Topaz, the required color does not contain green and lemon tones, and golden orange is preferred. For hair crystal, the color of crystal is also very important. Golden hair crystal hair, crystal completely colorless (white crystal) slightly brown, the visual experience of the naked eye is also different, so the price of the former will be higher than the latter. 2. Clarity: The clarity requirements of crystals and high-grade gems are quite different. High-grade gems are scarce, so people generally don't ask too much for the purity of high-grade gems. However, the output of crystal is really amazing, so people usually require the higher the purity of crystal, the better, and try to avoid crystals with obvious inclusions. 3. Impurities: If there are legendary figures in the impurities inside the crystal, such as Buddha, constellation, zodiac, etc., its value may be higher than that of the crystal with the same color and clarity.
