Amethyst is a purple variety of quartz (silicon dioxide SiO2) where the crystal has been subjected to natural irradiation by unstable elements in the Earth's crust, or where iron or other transition metals have been included in the crystal.
This picture focuses a macro view on a partial termination of a crystal point, with the rest of the crystal out of focus in the background. The rocky matrix on which the crystal grew is also visible at the edges.
