'Auras' in the crystalline sense are clear-quartz crystals which have another element bonded to them at the molecular level, producing a cystal combination which has the characteristics of quartz AND the substance which has bonded.

As the bond is at the molecular level, this is not just a 'pigmentation' or 'dying' of the quartz, but produces something which cannot be removed by rubbing, scraping or scratching, other than by damaging the quartz 'host' crystal itself.

This form of coluration was known to the Mayans, producing colours which have survived the effects of time better than any modern paint!

A range of 'Auras' are shown below, with whatever (limited) information is available. Generally though, these crystals are powerful amplifications of the basic Clear Quartz crystal properties AND the properties of the second substance.

	Amber-Aura	Taurus
	SiO₂+ Bi	Chakra: Solar Plexus	Number: 1	Air
Amber-Aura combines Clear Quartz and Bismuth

	Amethyst-Aura	Aquarius
	SiO₂+ Fe	Chakra: Crown	Number: 3	Air
Amethyst-Aura combines Clear Quartz and Ferric Iron.

	Aqua-Aura	Libra
	SiO₂+ Gold	Chakra: Throat	Number: 5	Water
Aqua-Aura combines Clear Quartz and gold to produce a very intense energy. The throat chakra is particularly affected, facilitating good communications. It is used to remove negativity on all levels, and to activate other crystals to be used for healing.

	Cobalt-Aura	Capricorn
	SiO₂+ Cobalt	Chakra: Third Eye	Number: 8	Earth
This combination was discovered by accident, producing a very deep 'cobalt-blue' which enhances intuition and creativity. Again, this combination possesses all the characteristics of Clear Quartz, plus those of cobalt.

	Emerald-Aura	Virgo
	SiO₂+ Tanzanite	Chakra: Heart	Number: 6	Earth
Emerald-Aura combines Clear Quartz and Tanzanite.

	Flame-Aura	Aquarius
	SiO₂+ Ti	Chakra: Base to Throat	Number: 6	Air
Titanium-Aura combines Clear Quartz and Titanium.

	Gold-Aura	Capricorn
	SiO₂+ Au	Chakra: Third Eye	Number: 2	Earth
Gold-Aura combines Clear Quartz and gold, rather like Aqua-Aura, except the gold is a lot more than one micron thick and is a genuine 'coating' instead of a molecular bonding.

	Opal-Aura	Cancer
	SiO₂+ Platinum	Chakra: All	Number: 7	Fire
This combination cleanses the aura and cleanses and stimulates all chakras.

	Ruby-Aura	Capricorn
	SiO₂+ Au + Niobium	Chakra: Base	Number: 9	Fire
Ruby-Aura combines Clear Quartz, Gold, and Niobium.
