Large Elestial Amethyst Crystal Specimen with Brazil’s Legendary Cacoxenite
The largest of the find, this rare mineral is a true masterpiece: a Matrix Cacoxenite Amethyst specimen gracefully set on a natural feldspar and quartz matrix and originating from the Espírito Santo region of Brazil—known as the only source of the legendary “Super Seven” crystals. This piece not only carries rarity and beauty, but immense geological significance.
This specimen has many highlights, but what truly sets it apart is its extreme rarity and provenance. In fact, this is the largest of only three such specimens recovered from the singular pocket where it formed, and we are the fortunate custodians of them—making this a literal one-in-a-million find. Geologically speaking, the co-occurrence of amethyst and cacoxenite in a matrix of feldspar and quartz is extraordinarily uncommon, with only a few other localities worldwide known for this unique mix of minerals, such as Namibia and Congo.
The cluster formed in a stunning elestial composition, with amethyst crystals featuring well-formed, sharply formed terminations that display purple and smoky tones in both transparent and translucent qualities. Peer inside and you’ll notice delicate golden needle-like streaks—these are the cacoxenite inclusions, a rare feature exclusive to the Espírito Santo region of Brazil.
100% natural, in pristine condition, this Cacoxenite Amethyst on Feldspar/Quartz Matrix is far more than just a mineral specimen – it’s a once-in-a-lifetime treasure from the heart of Brazil. Its exclusivity, combined with its aesthetic beauty and rich spiritual legacy, make it a truly special find.
