SUGILITH Raw stone from the WESSELS MINE - Kuruman Manganese Fields - SOUTH AFRICA
SUGLILITH - named after Dr. Ken - ichi SUGI who first discovered this mineral in 1944 in southwestern Japan.
Today, SUGILITH is found almost exclusively in the WESSELS mine, in fault zones of the manganese ores that are primarily mined in this mine. A geologist on site reported that countless SUGILITHE and other minerals, even gemstones, end up in the crushers of the ore processing plant every day and are crushed, as recovering the pieces would only slow down the mine's operations.
Especially in esoteric circles, this PEKTOLITH mineral is said to have extraordinary and wonderful "healing effects" - no idea why ? but - faith literally moves mountains .
The black parts in the stones are manganese ore and the occasionally appearing brown parts are FERROBUSTAMITE (rare mineral!)
Transparent stones are with CHALCEDON - dark violet tones are in demand - but there are also blue SUGILITHE and rarely small SUGILITH crystals with great magenta colors.
Weight of this rough stone is 236 g
Dimensions: 6.5 x 4 x 5 cm
Very good violet colors with black manganese ore, unpolished cut surface.
