Ouro Verde quartz, also known as lemon quartz, is a natural gemstone that has been treated. A popular light yellow/green variety of irradiated and heated quartz. Traded in Brazil under the name Ouro Verde, Portuguese for "green gold," this quartz material has a light yellow/green color similar to chrysoberyl. (Hence, its other name, "lemon quartz").This material isn't "nuked," which implies nuclear irradiation. Instead, it's irradiated with cobalt-60 gamma rays at a very low dosage, which dissipate as soon as they go in. Next, the gem is heated in a household toaster oven in several steps. According to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), there is no residual radiation left over after the quartz has been exposed to gamma-ray irradiation, which means these gemstones are perfectly safe to handle and wear. The company behind the treatment and making of lemon quartz is known as Empresa Brasileira de Radiacoes Ltda., and is located in Brazil. This company is also known for enhancing the colors of a number of other gemstones, including the 'green prasiolite' seen on the market today.
