Manganese (trace amounts) is the cause of the subtle color found in Morganite. The Morganite gemstone has a phenomenon known as pleochroism. In regards to this specific stone, it looks "pale pink and a deeper bluish pink" depending on the lighting.
"Most of the morganite on the market comes from pegmatite mines in Minas Gerais, Brazil" (gia.edu).
