"Enhydros contain a life-sustaining energy, initiating adaptability in situations that could otherwise become stressful. Strength to help other minerals perform in the requisite manner. Enhydros can be used to help one to "put oneself in the shoes of another" and to both recognise and understand the true feelings of that person... it supports the empathetic state." Melody, Love is in the Earth.

The ancient geology of this part of Namibia means Brandberg enhydros contain water that is over a million years old.

The Herero tribe named Brandberg, Omukuruvaro, "Mountain of the Gods". This sacred mountain range has produced the most beautiful, high-frequency healing crystals ever seen.

“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 keeping the crystal's energy intact. Blasting a hole in the earth and collecting the remains does not produce the best crystals.

Nearly all crystal shops now claim their crystals are 'ethically mined', but you only know where and how it was mined if you buy from the miners. For 30 years, we have worked directly with miners from the icy slopes of the Himalayas to the arid deserts of Namibia.
