The central druzy cavity forms when the last stage of crystal growth produces a cluster of tiny quartz points. \u003cstrong\u003eAura treatment\u003c\/strong\u003e involves bonding precious metal vapour — such as titanium, gold, or platinum — to the crystal surface in a vacuum chamber at high temperature, creating the characteristic iridescent metallic sheen without altering the underlying stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhysical Properties (Agate \/ Quartz base):\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComposition: Microcrystalline quartz (SiO₂)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardness: 6.5–7 on the Mohs scale\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLustre: Waxy to vitreous\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTransparency: Translucent to opaque\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecific gravity: 2.60–2.65\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn crystal healing traditions, Aura crystals are associated with elevated vibration, joy, spiritual awareness, and energetic protection.
