Rainbow quartz is a term used for describeing two states of quartz crystal. One state, is a quartz crystal that has been fractured internally. The refraction of light through the crystal, produces a rainbow color spectrum. The second state, are quartz crystals that have been coated in titanium. The coating gives the surface of the quartz a rainbow effect.
