How to make pure, synthetic quartz

Quartz is essential for modern technology, and demand is only rising. But natural quartz isn't good enough. And making the crystal synthetically is a long, precise operation that one Japanese company has mastered.

  • i just want to mention this technology uses high pressure as well - the technology was actually invented at Bell Laboratories in the 1950's. Quartz rocks are dissolved in sodium hydroxide and water at high temperatures in a high pressure vessel. As temperature is lowered the silicon dioxide molecules fall out of solution and auto assemble onto seed crystals. The process can be repeated to make the crystals more pure - (pressure vessel washed and crystals redissolved and recrystallized). It took many years to perfect the technology.

    • Thank you for this explaination! It's given more people the knowledge they need than you know just with a simple comment. Thank you,! One thing I worry about synthetic crystals is they don't have the same frequency, or even the same earth energy. When I hold crystals (after using reiki for many years my hands have became very sensitive to subtle energies) I hold them and I can feel a difference, one feels as if it connects with you more and synthetic I'm assuming has little earth energy and lower frequency atleast it feels that way when holding them. Holding the synthetic crystals gives the near similar feeling as glass while natural ones feel energetic and connected if that makes sense, but hey it just may be me alone and I can be one hundred percent wrong and I absolutely acknowledge that! I just wanted to see what your thoughts are on this. Thanks friend

  • The trick to getting natural feed stock to dissolve and recrystallize on seed is to keep a temperature gradient in the autoclave. It's heated in the bottom, where the solu gets saturated, convection mixes it upwards where cooling supersaturates the solution and causes it to recrystallize onto seed, there is not enough impurities for solution to become saturated of them, so they stay in solution and don't crystallize out, or they never dissolve to begin with. In any case you end up with large pure single crystals after few months of cooking your autoclave.

The LGBT community which is an identity political movement that done more harm than good to the actual community they claim to represent and we have had major cases in recent years where they have proven that with denial of scientific facts...
