Lemon Quartz
about Lemon Quartz
Lemon quartz also call lemon citrine is a gemstone mined from the ground from certain mines in Brazil. The rough material is a pale yellow color. The rough is then irradiated with gamma rays which changes the color to a vivid greenish yellow color. Lemon citrine closely resembles fine Chrysoberyl in hue and brilliance. Lemon quartz is a very good low cost substitute for chrysoberyl.
