One Tigers Eye Star

Tiger's eye is a type of gemstone that is known for its unique appearance and chatoyancy, which is a phenomenon where the stone exhibits a narrow band of reflected light that moves across its surface when tilted. This effect gives tiger's eye a distinctive and captivating appearance. πŸ―πŸ’Ž

**Formation:**
Tiger's eye is a form of quartz that undergoes a process called pseudomorphism. This occurs when crocidolite, a type of asbestos, is replaced by quartz through a gradual process of mineral replacement. The fibres of crocidolite are replaced over time by silica (quartz), while still retaining the fibrous structure. This process results in the formation of parallel and densely packed fibres within the quartz, giving rise to the chatoyant effect observed in tiger's eye. πŸ”„

**Appearance:**
Tiger's eye typically has a golden to brownish color with bands of yellow, brown, and sometimes red. The chatoyancy in tiger's eye is often likened to the eye of a tiger, which is how the gemstone got its name. πŸ‘οΈπŸŒˆ
