At a guess, I'm going to say quartz based on the proportions of silicon and oxygen. I might narrow it down to rose quartz, maybe the pink variant due to the aluminium.

 

Your description of a red colouration initially had me thinking of rubies, but that is a form of corundum - aluminium oxide -, with chromium.

 

We really don't have any info to go on, so this is truly a stab in the dark.

 

A picture would not go amiss.
