Amethyst was once thought to cure drunkenness. It is the name given to the purple variety of the mineral quartz, which is found in all colors. It is a very popular gemstone, the birthstone for February. Currently the bulk of amethyst on the market comes from Brazil and Uruguay, but it is mined in over a dozen countries.
