This is a genuine natural citrine point, not a heated stone — a distinction that matters to knowledgeable collectors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePolished vs. Raw Points:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThis point has been polished to a smooth, tactile finish that enhances the stone’s natural clarity and colour, making it ideal for both display and handling.

Natural citrine forms in hydrothermal veins and pegmatites and is most notably sourced from the Ural Mountains of Russia, Madagascar, Brazil, and the Democratic Republic of Congo. Its name derives from the Latin \u003cem\u003ecitrina\u003c\/em\u003e, meaning yellow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhysical Properties:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChemical formula: SiO₂ (silicon dioxide)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardness: 7 on the Mohs scale\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrystal system: Trigonal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLustre: Vitreous\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTransparency: Transparent to translucent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecific gravity: 2.65\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKnown as the \u003cstrong\u003eMerchant’s Stone\u003c\/strong\u003e and the \u003cstrong\u003eStone of Abundance\u003c\/strong\u003e, Citrine is associated with positivity, confidence, creativity, and the manifestation of prosperity.
