Guest guest Posted January 19, 2002 Report Share Posted January 19, 2002 the " white fungus " is part of the natural growth of the amethyst which gets its colour from the minerals present in the ground it grows in. the white growth is nothing more than lack of colour. Obviously it is picking up nuetrients from its environment and still growing, although this would be so slow it would not be noticeable Blessings, Grey Wolf - Peggy Jentoft Saturday, January 19, 2002 4:38 PM Re: [CrystalHW] stone??
