Pink Amethyst 

Amethyst becomes pink as a result of inclusions of Hematite within the crystalline structure. Scientists have spent a lot of time examining pink amethyst stone, and were able to conclude early on that this crystal is undoubtedly closer to amethyst than any other major mineral, including rose quartz.

Pink Amethyst is a rare species of Amethyst that is only found in the Patagonia area in the area in Argentina. More specifically, in that area the El chiquada mine is the most used site. Pink Amethyst is new and is hardly offered yet. 

On average, you can expect to pay about $25 or more for a relatively tiny piece of polished pink amethyst. As the stones get bigger, the price tends to soar up and up. For a small-sized amethyst geode, you're looking at splurging a couple of hundred dollars or more.
