This cool stone is a rare dark-gray or reddish

breccia aggregate (rock made up of fragments embedded in a matrix),

comprised mostly of hawk's eye and

tiger's eye. Pietersite from Namibia was

first described in 1962 by Sid Pieters, who named it in his father's honor. The

term "pietersite" is now used as a general term to describe brecciated

tiger's eye.


Pietersite is characterized by its

distinctive swirls or streaks of gold or

orange, due to the crocidolite inclusions

within a microcrystalline silica host. Crocidolite is the same material

responsible for tiger's eye chatoyancy. When polished, the inclusions in pietersite exhibit chaotic chatoyancy whereas in tiger's eye, the inclusions are arranged in parallel lines and give the

appearance of a continuous line.
