This radiant specimen hails from the renowned Edong Mining District in Daye, HuBei, China—a region celebrated for its vibrant mineral formations.

Geological Composition & Formation
Calcite (CaCO₃): A carbonate mineral formed through hydrothermal processes, often crystallizing in scalenohedral or dogtooth formations.
Chalcopyrite (CuFeS₂): A copper iron sulfide mineral known for its brassy luster and rainbow iridescence due to surface oxidation.
Pyrite (FeS₂): Commonly called “Fool’s Gold,” pyrite adds a golden sparkle and forms through sedimentary and hydrothermal activity.
These minerals formed in a high-temperature hydrothermal environment, where mineral-rich fluids deposited layers over time. The chalcopyrite’s iridescence is a result of oxidation, creating a natural rainbow patina that enhances its metaphysical and aesthetic appeal.
Metaphysical Properties
Calcite: Amplifies clarity, cleanses stagnant energy, and supports emotional balance. A stone of insight and renewal. Chalcopyrite: Known as the “Stone of the Mystic,” it opens the crown chakra, enhances perception, and invites abundance. Pyrite: A powerful shield against negativity, pyrite boosts confidence, willpower, and manifestation energy.
Together, this trio creates a potent energetic matrix—ideal for those seeking transformation, spiritual insight, and grounded empowerment.

DISCLAMERS:
Every natural stone/mineral or crystal is unique as it has been created from earth and then some of them are carved/polished by hand. Small flaws, natural fissures, drusy pockets, vugs, and cracks are commonly found on many crystals. We need to see the beauty in the little imperfections, that's the trademark of stones/mineral, or crystals nothing it's 100% "perfect".
Stones/minerals and crystals look amazing in collections, home decorating, and altars. Some are small enough to carry with you at work or during travel. Although crystals can support energetic well-being and make wonderful additions in meditation and reiki, they should never replace traditional medical treatment.
