As is the case with all precious gems such as diamonds, rubies and emeralds, Quartz’s value will also vary according to its grade and clarity. Those with unique natural etchings and markings on the surface, are considered to be more valuable, such as triogonic formations and record keepers.
Many people consider Lemurian Quartz to be the ultimate companion for meditation, considered to be one of the ‘Master Crystals’ and also known as ‘Master Teacher’.
Geology: Lemurian Quartz is a found in Brazil and Columbia. Lemurian seed crystal or striated crystal Quartz, also referred to as Lemurian Quartz, is a special variety of clear Quartz which is a silicon dioxide mineral. Lemurian Quartz can be identified in its natural state by the clear striations that give it a raised, linear texture on what would otherwise be a flat surface, giving it an almost stepped appearance.
Quartz or Silicon dioxide (SiO₂) is the second most abundant mineral in the Earth’s crust. Quartz crystals grow in silica rich, hydro-thermal environments between 100-450°c under extreme pressure. The Quartz veins form when hot water fills open fissures over many millions of years during the formation of mountains.

Pyrite
Attributes: Abundance / Protection / Well-being / Strength / Drive.
Mohs hardness scale: 6-6.5.
The mineral Pyrite is also known more commonly as ‘fool’s gold’. It has frequently been mistaken for real gold. It is a dazzling stone and has a metallic lustre, with a brassy colouring that is similar to yellow Gold. It can also come in more tarnished shades with lights black or green streaks in it. It can be found across the world, Peru, Namibia, Spain, Mexico, Canada, Italy, Kazakhstan and the USA. Pyrite is often considered to be a mineral rather than a metal. Some specimens can contain real gold which can vary the price dramatically.
Geology: Pyrite comes from the Cubic crystal system and is an iron Sulphide, one of the most abundant sulphide minerals. It forms in the Earth alongside other Sulphides or Oxides in Quartz Veins. Pyrite can often be found in mines alongside gold deposits and so it is found as both a primary mineral, present in the original sediments and as a secondary mineral deposited during diagenesis (physical and chemical changes in sediments caused by water-rock interactions). Pyrite is commonly found as an accessory mineral in Shale where it is formed by precipitation from anoxic seawater.
The word Pyrite comes from a Greek word ‘pyr’ meaning, stone which strikes fire. In Ancient Roman times, this name was given to a collection of stones that would create a spark when struck against steel. The Ancient Incas used Pyrite tablets as mirrors due to its reflective nature. It has been used in jewellery for thousands of years. The ancients believed wearing Pyrite would be good for the entire body system.
As Pyrite has a high Iron content, avoid putting it into contact with water or liquids as it may lead to rusting or changes in colour. Keep it dry.
