Carnelian belongs to the quartz group of
minerals, the second most abundant mineral group on earth. Although all share the same chemical composition of silicon
dioxide, they are classified into two distinct branches based on crystal
formation: Macrocrystalline quartz and cryptocrystalline quartz. Carnelian
belongs to the cryptocrystalline branch of quartz. Cryptocrystalline, also
referred to as chalcedony quartz, includes a variety of other gemstones
including agate, onyx and jasper. Carnelian is classified by its distinct color
and is defined as a red-orange to brownish-red variety of chalcedony quartz.
Carnelian obtains its color through iron impurities that form within colorless
quartz crystal.
