Abstract: This paper deals with the nature of cathodoluminescence investigations of quartz-bearing rocks. There are three types of luminescence quartz: "violet", brown and non-luminescent, representing the characteristics of rocks with dis- tinct temperature history i. e. "violet" luminescent quartz in igneous rocks,br- own luminescent quartz in regional metamorphic rocks, and non-luminescent qu- artz formed diagenetically in sediments.
