Quartz

Basic Introduction to Jian Zhan Jian zhan, or tea cups, originate from Jianyang District, Nanping City, Fujian Province. Nanping City has identified 11 large-scale mineral deposits, such as piezoelectric quartz and melting quartz in Zhenghe County, sulfur mines in Pucheng County, fluorite mines in Shaowu, Jianyang, Songxi, and Guangze Counties, graphite mines in Jianyang, niobium-tantalum mines in Yanping, limestone and cement siliceous raw materials in Shunchang. There are 15 medium-sized deposits, including four lead-zinc mines, four fluorite mines, one limestone mine, two serpentine rock mines, two sulfur mines, one niobium-tantalum mine, and one cement siliceous raw material deposit. Over 80 small-scale mineral deposits have been identified. More than 700 known mineralization points and over 200 geochemical anomalies have also been recorded, along with over 200 heavy mineral anomalies (including 14 gold anomalies and 112 tungsten, tin, and molybdenum anomalies), over 50 diversion anomalies, and over 20 magnetic anomalies. These conditions make the area suitable for producing jian zhan. Jian zhan typically have wide mouths and small bases, some resembling funnels. They often have ring feet that are shallow, with a characteristic knife-cutting technique (commonly known as chamfering) at the foot base, and the bottom of the foot is slightly outwardly…

Basic Introduction to Mozambique Rose QuartzRose quartz, also known as rosy quartz, lotus quartz, lotus stone, or rose crystal, is a type of quartz and a famous gemstone of love. The texture of rose quartz is brittle, forming a pink color due to trace amounts of titanium. Pure quartz allows certain wavelengths of ultraviolet light, visible light, and infrared light to pass through, exhibiting optical rotation, piezoelectricity, and electro-optic properties. Its transparency ranges from opaque to semi-transparent and transparent. History and FolkloreIn Greek mythology, when Paris was a young shepherd, the goddess of love, Aphrodite, gave him a rose quartz bracelet with a prophecy of love. When he grew up, Paris followed the orders of King Priam of Troy to lead a large fleet to Sparta to negotiate the return of his aunt Hesione (who had been abducted by Heracles). After completing his sacrifice to the goddess of love in the temple on the island of Cythera, he saw Helen (the most beautiful woman in the world at that time) entering the temple to make an offering.Paris was speechless with admiration as she walked in, almost unable to control himself. He had heard of Helen's beauty and found her even…
