An amethyst is purple or another color depending on the variety.
Amethysts are mainly used for adornment of decorative objects or in jewelry. Some believe that the natural amethyst gemstone can be used for healing which comes from the ancient practice of carving cups out of amethyst or using amethysts as decorative touches to avoid drunkenness.

to tell the truth, i dont know
Amethyst is a mineral. Minerals can be found in all three types of rocks. The crystals are most commonly found inside geodes, making it classified a sedimentary rock. Amethyst is quartz mineral crystal with a purplish tint derived from iron impurities.
The crystalline mineral amethyst is a variety of quartz and may be found in situ (in place in the rock it was formed in) in small cavities called Vughs mainly in rocks of volcanic origin. This is not very helpful if you want to find them easily. perhaps the best place to find them easily is on the seashore, where amethyst pebbles can often be found where streams have intersected volcanic rocks on their way to the sea and washed down the amethysts onto the gravelly beach deposits.
Yes, it is quartz, just purple!
