Since only electricity is used to deposit the titanium layers and create these colors, very little heat is involved and the integrity of the crystal is maintained. The brilliant color of flame aura as an example is the result of optical interference effects produced by layers of titanium. After the gold vapor deposition is completed, Titanium molecules are bonded to the quartz by the natural electrostatic charge of the crystal in a process known as magnetron ionization. Rainbow quartz for example is treated with a combination of titanium and gold. When viewed under a gemological microscope in diffused light, aqua aura displays a coppery surface iridescence that has diffused dark outlines of some facet junctions, patchy blue color distribution on some facets or white facet junctions, irregular white abrasions and surface pits, where the treatment either did not "take" or had been abraded away. The gold atoms fuse to the crystal's surface, which gives the crystal an iridescent metallic sheen. The quartz is heated to 871 ☌ (1600 ☏) in a vacuum, and then gold vapor is added to the chamber. Aura crystals are Quartz crystals that have been modified by electrostatically bonding or vapor deposition of precious pure earth metals onto the surface of natural Clear Quartz points or clusters which produce a new color and visual layer that is permanently bonded to the crystals.Īqua aura for example is created in a vacuum chamber from quartz crystals and gold vapor by vapor deposition (depositing gold vapors on the crystals). The beauty of Aura Quartz crystals with their shimmering iridescence and metallic rainbow sheen in colors that defy nature are mesmerizing to see.
