Color Change Diaspore

 

Color Change Diaspore, Diaspore from Turkey is here to support you as you move from where you are to where you want to be. Diaspore, sometimes known by its trade name as zultanite, comes from the Greek word “diaspora” meaning “to scatter” because of the way the mineral scatters when exposed to heat. This is a shapeshifting stone – it helps you move from one state of matter (mind) to another. Diaspore possesses a unique quality called “pleochroism,” which means it can change colors when held or looked at under certain lighting conditions. Work with this Natural Diaspore to help you morph into who you’re meant to be.

Diaspore enhances psychic abilities, intuition, intentions, and desire. It’s a healing crystal that helps you adapt to new or changing circumstances and improves focus and memory retention. Diaspore changes colors under light and empowers you to see situations under a new light as well. It provides exactly what you need, including a boost of energy or a calming effect.

Diaspore Specifications & Characteristics

Diaspore is an aluminum oxide hydroxide. The diaspore formula is AlO(OH), but manganese, iron, or chromium may be present. Diaspore’s hardness on the Mohs scale is similar to tanzanite, at 6.5-7.

Outside of Turkish material, what does a diaspore gemstone look like? Most diaspore color-change stones are green in sunlight, yellow-green in fluorescent light, and reddish-pink in incandescent light. Some show multiple colors at once in the right lighting.

 

Color-Changing Diaspore

Turkish color-changing diaspore shows kiwi green, rich pinkish-red, and champagne hues under different lighting. Is Turkish diaspore rare? Yes. Turkey produces large rough specimens, but gem-quality diaspore is still rare.

 

How Does Diaspore Change Color?

Diaspore’s color-changing happens through light absorption in the crystal lattice.

The visible spectrum of colors includes the colors of the rainbow, each occupying a wavelength. Generally, a gemstone’s color is the only wavelength it doesn’t absorb — e.g., blue gemstones absorb every wavelength but the blue wavelength.

However, different light sources emit different wavelengths. If the light is low in a certain wavelength, objects that don’t absorb that wavelength (i.e. are that color) look different under that lighting.

A “transmission window” is when a gemstone has low absorption of a wavelength (color). Color-changing gems have multiple transmission windows. So, if a light source emits more green wavelengths, the gem looks green; if a different light emits more red wavelengths, the gem looks red.
