The name citrine is derived from citrus, due to its yellow color. Citrine is created because amethyst or smoky quartz reaches high temperatures through geothermal energy. By heating it to temperatures between 400 ˚C and 560 ˚C, the purple colors disappear and a yellow color is created. The heating ensures that the iron ions present organize themselves differently.
