Rare Blue Chrysocolla & Red Cuprite Polished Piece Rock Stone Slab Oh my gosh-this material is causing quite a stir! It is the best blue/red we have seen in 25 years of specializing in Chrysocolla. This is a gorgeous slab of Chrysocolla Cuprite (and Chalcotricite= orangey red) from Mexico! It is being called Sonora Sunset. This lovely piece is slabbed and polished on one side. The polished face is 2.75 inches long by 1.75 to 3.25 inches wide and about .25 inch thick. #7 This brand new material is from the Millpillas Mine in Sonora Mexico. The mine opened in 2006. Though most copper mines are open pit mines-this material is covered by 1000 feet of gravel! Chrysocolla is known as a healing stone among Native American Indian cultures where it was used for strengthening the body's resistance and bringing about calm feelings where there is upset. Chrysocolla is named from the Greek chrysos - "gold" and kolla - "glue" in allusion to the name of the material used to solder gold. Cuprite is named from the Latin, cuprum, meaning copper. Metaphysical Properties: Chrysocolla is associated with serenity, tranquility, peace, patience, tolerance, acceptance, uncondional love, meditation, calmness, hope gentleness and sensitivity. Cuprite assists us in dealing with female relationships, mother, sister, daughter, wife or a female partner. It is also said to be helpful in dealing with major problems: irrational anieties, terror from past tramas, and fear of dying. Shipping terms: I am always happy to combine shipping.
