Omasheko Brandberg Self-Healed Enhydro DT: Ethically Hand-Mined Natural Crystal

Ethically hand-mined Brandberg Quartz

85mm ~ 3 1/2" ~ 154 grams

Omasheko Brandberg crystals are from a remote location in the Brandberg Mts. This unusual Brandberg-type is formed in calcite, which, being softer than quartz, later dissolved, leaving uniquely shaped crystals with distinctive etching. The energy-amplifying properties of calcite make Omashekos physically energetic crystals, and they are the ultimate growth-interference quartz.

Two easily seen moving bubbles, red lepidocrocite flecks (Harlequin quartz), and spectacular self-healing resulting in a DT (double termination).

"Enhydros contain a life-sustaining energy, initiating adaptability in situations which could, otherwise, become stressful. Strength to help other minerals perform in the requisite manner." Melody, Love is in the Earth.

"The Etched quartz is usually a personal meditation crystal. The growth interference quartz crystal has been used to bring access to the astral, ethereal and higher planes, in order that one may remove barriers and may understand the patience of step-wise progression. It can assist in proceeding through traumas and changes with ease – promoting understanding.” Melody, Love is in the Earth.

“If I had to pick my favourite quartz, it would be Brandberg Quartz!  They are magic in a crystal!” The Crystal Bible, Judy Hall.

Kacha Stones is the original ethically mined crystal shop, trading since 1996. Ethical sourcing is important not only for the environment and mining communities, but also for preserving a crystal's energy.

Although most crystal shops now use 'ethically mined', this is only possible by buying directly from miners. We have spent nearly 30 years cultivating relationships with miners from the snow-capped peaks of the Himalayas to the deserts of Namibia.
