    Explore 14+ Crystal Identification Tools

    Crystal Identifier

    Identify any crystal specimen from a photo — quartz, tourmaline, feldspar, fluorite and more. Get name, crystal system, hardness, and formation details.

    Gemstone Identifier

    Identify faceted gems, cabochons, rough stones, and beads. Covers precious and semi-precious stones with value indication and authenticity notes.

    Mineral Identifier

    Identify mineral specimens including ores, crystals, and native elements. Includes streak colour, luster type, cleavage, and Mohs hardness analysis.

    Amethyst Identifier

    Confirm if your purple crystal is genuine amethyst or a look-alike like purple fluorite, iolite, or glass. Includes origin estimate and quality grade.

    Quartz Identifier

    Identify quartz varieties — clear quartz, rose quartz, smoky quartz, citrine, and aventurine — from a photo with confidence scoring and collector tips.

    Turquoise Identifier

    Distinguish natural turquoise from howlite, magnesite dye, and plastic imitations. Includes vein pattern analysis and origin region estimate.

    Agate Identifier

    Identify agate varieties — banded, moss, fire, lace, and more — from a photo. Includes banding pattern analysis, colour range, and typical formation region.

    Diamond Identifier

    Screen a suspected diamond against common simulants — moissanite, cubic zirconia, quartz, and glass. Not a lab certificate but a strong first-pass assessment.

    Ruby Identifier

    Identify natural ruby vs synthetic ruby, red spinel, red garnet, and glass simulants. Includes colour grade, probable origin, and treatment likelihood.

    Gold Identifier

    Check if your specimen is native gold or a common fool’s gold lookalike — pyrite, chalcopyrite, or mica. Includes gold likelihood rating and next steps.

    Silver Identifier

    Identify native silver, sterling silver, silver ore minerals, and silver-plated objects. Includes purity estimate, hallmark explanation, and tarnish analysis.

    Pearl Identifier

    Distinguish natural pearls, cultured pearls, and imitation pearls by photo. Covers Akoya, South Sea, Tahitian, and freshwater varieties with luster grading.

    Geode Identifier

    Identify the crystal lining inside geodes — amethyst, quartz, calcite, celestite. Includes formation region, typical crystal type, and collector value.

    Gem Identifier

    General gem identifier covering all precious and semi-precious stones — cut or uncut. The broadest tool in our gem suite, ideal when you don’t know what you have.

    Silver Identifier

    Identify native silver, sterling silver, silver ore minerals, and silver-plated objects. Includes purity estimate, hallmark explanation, and tarnish analysis.

    Diamond Identifier

    Distinguish natural pearls, cultured pearls, and imitation pearls by photo. Covers Akoya, South Sea, Tahitian, and freshwater varieties with luster grading.

    How Crystal Identification Works

    Crystal identification has traditionally required a trained mineralogist, specialized equipment, and hours of analysis. Our AI crystal scanner changes that — upload a photo and receive a professional-grade identification in seconds, powered by the same visual reasoning a gemologist uses in the field.

    Our system analyzes crystal structure, luster, color zoning, transparency, habit, and cleavage — the same diagnostic properties a crystallographer examines. Combined with any physical context you provide (location found, hardness, fluorescence), the AI narrows down candidates with expert precision.

    Quartz Family

    Amethyst, rose quartz, citrine, smoky quartz, clear quartz

    Gemstones

    Diamond, ruby, sapphire, emerald, tourmaline

    Minerals

    Feldspar, mica, calcite, fluorite, pyrite

    Agates & Jaspers

    Banded agate, moss agate, red jasper, picture jasper

    Precious Metals

    Native gold, silver ore, gold simulants

    Organic Gems

    Pearls, amber, coral, jet

    What makes a good crystal photo?

    Natural daylight is best. Place your crystal on a plain white or black background. Upload up to 3 images — a top view, a close-up of the crystal structure, and a side angle showing transparency and luster. The AI gets significantly more accurate with multiple angles.
