About Amethyst Gemstones – History and Introduction
Amethyst is one the most popular semi precious gemstones. It is known as the birthstone for the month of February. It is a macro crystalline type of Quartz and comes in pink to dark purple color. Iron and Aluminum impurities are responsible for the color of this stone.  Amethyst is transparent to translucent clarity with a nice luster and shine.

The deposits with the highest market value are in Brazil and are available in Brazil and  the neighboring country Uruguay. After these two, Madagascar has the next biggest deposit and apart from these countries, small mines are available in other countries. Amethyst Harbor is a place in Canada where Amethyst is found in huge quantities but most of the raw material is not gemstone quality material. The Violet Quartz is found there in ample quantities, though rarely in Amethyst Gemstones quality.

In recent times however, a find in the USA has been making headlines. A three-meter Amethyst Druse was found in Maine, weighing over 1000 kgs and had Amethyst Raw material in big quantities.
