After his discovery, he registered the find in the mineral records of Britain. His discovery was published in 1964, and the material was named Pietersite.   Pietersite is a trade name for a breccia aggregate made up mainly of Hawk's Eye and Tiger Eye. The distinctive shimmering gold streaks are what makes Pietersite so special, and is often accompanied by abstract swirls of color that liken it to an impressionistic oil painting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePietersite is a mix of blue and gold tiger's eye in quartz which has been folded and stressed in the Earth.
