Everything you've shown as citrine in your shop is most definitely MAN MADE (artificially heated) citrine. Your shop doesnt have any high quality citrine (heated or not). So, since you have SO MUCH of the cheap stuff, it makes more sense why you try to say natural citrine doesnt exist, or else no one would buy your cheap looking citrine.

You got me 😮your very smart 🎉. But… and i say but… you have no idea what your talking about 😊

[@TH-oh8cw]

This is a heated topic (haha) I find your video to be very interesting and it helped me do further research on the topic. My conclusion is that there is a little truth in everything. My bottom line falls between these to comments. Your buddy said that after researching this topic he couldn't find a reputable scholarly source that listed citrine as a gemstone. I found that some do and some don't. Secondly I believe you stated that citrine does not appear naturally. I found that it does but it is very rare. Ultimately something or somebody applied heat to a quartz crystal. So in the end I don't think it's worth even caring about. Good video, thanks.

[@sabinekatsavrias4422]

lol .... my gut is kinda agreeing

[@Beautiful-Sensation]

The difference is GMO (Heated treated by man) vs homegrown (NATURALLY heat treated by the earth).

[@newbengraham4775]

well i guess i prefer yellow quartz, because i can't stand that burnt amethyst.

[@user-xx9kx6zs6e]

Sir, i don't even care if it's 'fake' heated Amethyst or it's 'natural'. Only thing that i care is; does Citrine have different metaphysical properties/energy than Amethyst?

[@trish9910]

I like your simple explanation, cause I have been confused in regards to yellow/lemon quartz vs citrine. Heat treated to create color.

[@dragonhoard9371]

I have some stunning see through golden yellow quartz clusters I dug up myself. Must have been exposed to heat underground

[@Spiritualism101]

Or yellow hematoid quartz

[@GiveYouOneGuess]

⁠@@Spiritualism101otherwise known as golden healer and they’re quite different. You can literally see the golden inclusions. You’re right with everything you said but then you make it wrong lol it’s strange. “Natural” citrine isn’t a different crystal. It’s found in most forms of quartz. So clear, Smokey and even in Amethyst (Ametrine). I have seen yellowing in rose but - probably hematoid as that’s what it looks like to me. It just means naturally heated with a yellow colouring IN THE EARTH. Not manipulated by man. It looks amazing compared to BAKED amethyst lol. I’ve done a lot of studying for many years. I own many real and fake ones.. fake Meaning man made. Because just like if you dye your hair a different colour; that’s fake too - if we are talking just colours here. You’re so close yet so far. It’s just yellowing from heat caused by Mother Nature. Nature. Natural. Hope you’ve done more research since this video was made. Otherwise you just wanna sell your cooked crystals. There’s also irradiated. Not many talk about that. Or even dyed ones. Mainly commenting to educate others. As this was very misinforming.

[@Andrew-uo6to]

Buy some gia certified citrine. It's real, this guy just doesn't deal in quality minerals.

[@AthenaSophia7]

This man runs a successful business and I’m amazed by people claiming he is spreading misinformation so that he can sell his so called “fake” citrine lol Don’t think he needs citrine to sell to survive lol I see this topic easily triggers people. Instead of bashing a business why not do your own research and be ok with having others disagree with your own opinion without becoming a keyboard warrior 🤷‍♀️

[@TheArianElfTarotLLC]

Thank you for sharing!! 💜

[@sylmaron5859]

Looks like someone desperately wants to get rid of his fake stuff.

[@jasonellis8180]

WRONG, People want the real deal, not fake crap, so stop selling it.

[@petrifiedhearts]

There is no real citrine idiot. 100% of citrine is heated amethyst.

[@NinerGal]

Omg hahahaha I appreciate you so much.

[@MikeG-js1jt]

So, citrine and amethyst are both quartz, but the amethyst is the only one between the two of them that comes out of the ground that color, the citrine color (orange to yellow) is only achieved by heating amethyst. But they are BOTH QUARTZ ............ (Is That All Correct?)

[@sabinekatsavrias4422]

lol ....

[@krissym7651]

This is so good. You guys need your own show!!

[@mugu03]

its part of our show or else it wouldn't be on youtube

[@krissym7651]

@Nixon Mugabo lol very true, I was thinking like discovery channel! Everyone should be watching this stuff!

[@Rick__C-137]

Dont feed his ego 🤮

[@mugu03]

But why are you so much into convincing people that heated amethyst is natural citrine please stay away from this topic

[@Rick__C-137]

Agreed. Probably bc he cant get natural citrine. Ive watched his Instagram lives and everything he shows as citrine is most definitely as man made citrine. His shop doesnt have any high quality citrine (heated or not) 😂

[@petrifiedhearts]

@@Rick__C-137 There is no such thing as natural citrine. It doesn't exist. You are a fool.

[@sabinekatsavrias4422]

the problem i have with heat treated emathyst is ..its ugly as f...it gives off the bad vibe of a burnt pizza. Also if i sold you a plastic handbag and said it was natural leather im pretty sure you would be ticked off.

[@devg5849]

Nicely explained, Thanks

[@paulb8195]

As layman “user” with love of crystals to sync with human lives and emotions, I can somewhat understand many crystal healers and seller of stones saying man made HTA as “citrines”. Natural citrine is getting rarer and most exports out of countries like Brazil are HTAs. So large stocks of HTA citrines are carried by many shops as “citrines”. I am ok but am not happy when the sellers do not have full disclosure or honesty about whether it is natural or HTAs to the unsuspecting novice buyer. From the testimonies of my circle who has no vested interest in crystal trade, IMHO, it is just not correct to say HTA is no different from natural citrine. The process to get there is so different. Natural citrines are created by millions or hundreds of thousand of years under slow high pressure and heat in earth’s crust. HTAs are created out of amethyst from super strong fire or oven heat at commercial processing speed. The amethyst existed as an amethyst in time and history for a reason. The application of environment on the crystal is different. For sure, HTAs are crystal and continue to have energy and frequency. One cannot simply claim HTAs are identical to natural citrines. Besides cosmetic visual of naturals and HTA as being different, many crystal healers and personal lives will tell you they feel a difference in energy level and impact. If a HTA still helps someone or one loves the physical form and color and wants one, of course it is more than fine. But they are not the same.

[@phoenixkali]

I’d say just use the hta citrine as an amethyst, the third eye, instead of the solar plexus. Quite different results!

[@Andrew-uo6to]

How do i know natural citrine is real? GIA says it is. The gem experts who certify diamonds, emeralds, etc.. You've been selling crappy minerals for um, over a decade. Ive been selling actual gia certified citrine😘

[@angelabonacci]

🧡

[@mugu03]

You know the more you argue about citrine the more people are going to discredit your business please stay away from citrine topics it is what it is

[@Spiritualism101]

Discredit for what?? Correct information is important. I will not stop combating misinformation as someone with some guts has to do it. Its a discredit to myself and the industry if i dont push back. Either way thank you for your concern and good advice! Appreciate the feedback

[@Rick__C-137]

Totally agree.

[@sabinekatsavrias4422]

I wouldnt buy from sombody trying to tell me a plastic handbag was real leather so i have to say your advice is pretty good . shame they dont seem to wanna hear it lol.
