A richly detailed ironstone formation showing the natural transformation of siderite into hematite over time.
Reddish-gold and earthy brown tones shimmer across a layered surface, revealing the story of oxygen and iron exchanging places deep within the Earth.
Tiny quartz crystals accent the matrix, bringing contrast and light to this rugged, textural specimen — a tangible example of nature’s quiet alchemy.
Details:
• Weight: 1 lb 1.7 oz (≈ 500 g)
• Size: ~6.5" × 4.5" × 2"
• Type: Hematite pseudomorph after Siderite with Quartz
• Origin: Likely Morocco
• Finish: Natural, unpolished
• Family: Oxide (Hematite), Carbonate (former Siderite), Silicate (Quartz)
Energetic & Metaphysical Properties:
Grounding • Strength • Transformation
Chakra: Root
Element: Earth & Fire
Hematite stabilizes and grounds energy, promoting endurance and clarity. The pseudomorphic nature symbolizes transformation and resilience — a reminder that even profound change preserves the essence of who we are.
Geological Notes:
System: Trigonal (Hematite, Quartz)
Hardness: 5.5–7
Formation: Hydrothermal replacement, iron oxidation of carbonate phase
