Citrine is a variety of quartz whose color ranges from a pale yellow to brown. Natural citrines are rare; most commercial citrines are heat-treated amethysts or smoky quartzes. It is nearly impossible to tell cut citrine from yellow topaz visually, but they differ in hardness. Citrine has ferric impurities, and is rarely found naturally. Brazil is the leading producer of citrine, with much of its production coming from the state of Rio Grande do Sul. The name is derived from Latin citrina which means "yellow" and is also the origin of the word "citron." Sometimes citrine and amethyst can be found together in the same crystal, which is then referred to as ametrine.[9]
Citrine is one of three traditional birthstones for the month of November.

| Citrino es una de las piedras preciosas más populares y asequibles. Nombrada de la palabra francesa para limón, "citron", la mayoría de citrinos son actualmente de un dorado que de un amarillo limón. Citrino incluye los colores amarillo a dorado a café anaranjado y tonos rojos de cuarzo transparente. En tiempos antiguos, citrino fue llevada como protección contra el veneno de serpiente y pensamientos malignos. Citrino se conoce hoy como la piedra mercantil y es asociada con éxito y prosperidad. |
