Amethyst Burn

I received a request to see what the effects HHO would have on quartz. I happened to have amethyst on hand which is a form of quartz. The effects were similar to the petrified wood which are both minerals. A little frustration led me to start burning my beloved switch plate cover..........Come see my other videos here!.............. http://www.youtube.com/user/carsandwa...

I seriously hope you're wearing some sort of eye protection - not just from the little flecks that fly around, but because when you melt quartz (amethyst is basically just purple quartz) it emits a ton of UV radiation and you don't want that stuff hitting your naked eye.

It will fizzle and return back to it's normal color.

Ahaha burn the purple off it and then sell it like diamonds.

Diamond is pure carbon - it would burn up leaving almost no residue.

[A11ex]

It would just burn up, like coal.
