Q: What is Mango Quartz made of?

Mango Quartz has the chemical formula SiO₂ (with Fe oxide coating), crystallises in the trigonal system and measures 7 (Mohs) on the Mohs scale. Mango quartz is a trade name for quartz crystals from Colombia whose peach to orange color comes from thin iron-oxide (limonite / hematite) coatings and inclusions on and within the crystal faces. The underlying quartz itself is ordinary clear quartz.
