Hey my name is d-16 please dont call me nicknames i only go by d-16 nicknames make me uncomfortable

Im a member of a system i made this blog so i can post and reblog stuff i think is cool like rocks crystals and math problems i might also talk about my family sometimes if i feel brave enough to share that kind of stuff but im a pretty private person

Our system in general is traumagenic and diagnosed with did but were pro endogenic plurality if i can be honest i dont give two scraps what your origins are and i think people who do are weird and can frag off

Mind your own dni

Today's Specimen: Ametrine

Ametrine is a variety of quartz with areas of natural purple and yellow/orange colouration. It's name comes from the colours it produces, resembling both amethyst and citrine. Ametrine deposits can be found in Bolivia, Brazil, and India, with the majority coming from a single mine in Bolivia. It is ranked at about a 7.0 on the Mohs hardness scale. Alternate names for ametrine include: Bolivianite, Golden Amethyst, and Trystine.

Today's Specimen: Taaffeite

Taaffeite occurs in carbonate rocks along with spinel, fluorite, tourmaline, and mica. Taaffeite is similar to spinel, but much lesser known due to it's high rarity. It can be distinguished from spinel by its double refraction, while spinel is only singly refractive. It's discovery in 1945 was because it was mistaken for spinel. A gemologist by the name of Edward Taaffe noticed a cut gem looked slightly different from all the other spinel stones. It remains the first and only gemstone to be discovered after it was already faceted. Taaffeite can be found in a variety of colours, including pink and purple shades, red, brown, blue, green, grey, and colourless. It can be found in various deposits within Sri Lanka, southern Tanzania, and China. Taaffeite has an 8.0-8.5 on the Mohs hardness scale, also very similar to spinel. The major difference between the two stones is taaffeite's birefringence, chemical composition, and crystalline structure (spinel is cubic, taaffeite is hexagonal). Alternate names for taaffeite include: Bemagalite and Taprobanite.
