The color of pink amethyst is due to the strong presence of hematite, which gives the quartz its pink color, unlike rose quartz, for example. Amethyst is derived from the Greek word amethistos, which means something like "against intoxication or non-intoxicating" and originates from the ancient superstition that its wearer is protected from the intoxicating effects of wine.
