Ametrine
Ametrine is the name used for quartz in which both amethyst and citrine occur together. The colors in ametrine are usually artificially produced by irradiation and/or heating. Ametrine also occurs (rarely) in nature and is mined almost exclusively in Bolivia.
Ametrine is said to have all the metaphysical properties of both amethyst and citrine combined, as well its own unique properties; aids in meditation, relieves tension, disperses negativity and helps to eliminate prejudice.
