No, not exactly

If you look at the different chemical compositions you could say "Amethyst is a purple quartz" or "purple quartz is part of Amethyst"

but why split hairs? look at the chevrons, they are beautiful... although sad it is hung upside down really unless used as a wand and held perhaps?

Yes, the chevrons are beautiful. What's the difference, then?
