This silky, luminous band of light appears to float across the surface of the stone as it is rotated, produced by the reflection of light off tightly packed parallel mineral fibers within the quartz matrix.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTiger’s Eye forms through \u003cstrong\u003epseudomorphic replacement\u003c\/strong\u003e — a rare geological process in which fibrous blue asbestos (\u003cstrong\u003ecrocidolite\u003c\/strong\u003e, Na₂Fe⁵Si₈O₂₂(OH)₂) is gradually infiltrated and replaced by silica-rich hydrothermal fluids. The silica (SiO₂) replaces the crocidolite mineral content while preserving its parallel fibrous structure intact within the new quartz matrix. Over millions of years, iron within the original crocidolite fibers oxidizes to \u003cstrong\u003egoethite (FeO(OH))\u003c\/strong\u003e, producing the characteristic \u003cstrong\u003egolden-brown to amber color\u003c\/strong\u003e. The preserved parallel fiber structure is what creates the chatoyant optical effect — the “golden sheen” that makes Tiger’s Eye instantly recognizable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTiger’s Eye has a Mohs hardness of \u003cstrong\u003e6.5–7\u003c\/strong\u003e, making it durable enough for everyday handling and use as a palm stone or meditation tool.
