Think pink! Star rose quartz is one of the most desirable varieties of quartz. The pink to rose red color is completely unique, unlike any other pink mineral species. The color is caused by iron and titanium impurities. In this episode of "Cash and Treasures," Kirsten spends her birthday with Rodney Moore, manager of Hogg Mine. She takes her sledgehammer in hand and pounds on rock to find star rose quartz. Plan your trip to Georgia to hunt for the pretty pink gemstone.  

No one is allowed on the property without prior approval, signing a release and paying the fee. Open Fridays and Saturdays by appointment only! Star rose quartz, tourmaline crystals, Aquamarine Beryl crystals. The Star Rose Quartz at Hogg Mine has a beautiful quality; you cut and polish it, and it makes a star, much like star sapphire. The site features a virgin area to dig with a pegmatite of mica, feldspar, a rose quartz core and, if your lucky, Beryl!
