Alexandrite composition is very scarce. Alexandrite is a chrysoberyl, a mineral consisting of colorless or yellow transparent chrysoberyl, chrysoberyl cat’s eye and colour-changing alexandrite. What makes it different from other types of chrysoberyls is that it not only contains iron and titanium, but also chromium as a major impurity. The chromium is what causes Alexandrite's wonderful color changing qualities. This is so important to the stone because only chrysoberyls displaying a distinct change of color can be considered Alexandrite.
