Pics do not do these crystals justice! Some of my most recent additions from - who has some of the most gorgeous and unique crystals I’ve ever seen. Pic 1 and 2 are pyrite and clear quartz from Peru. The black mineral in pic 1 is sphalerite. Pic 3 is Himalayan clear quartz 😍 The energy is unreal! @ Pensacola Floirda

I’m still only able to retrieve surface level crystals and usually before they have fully formed. I can’t see to find the spot where layers of crystals form and excavate them prior to the bismuth solidifying into a block. Practice, practice, practice. It is neat to see the colors at each point in the cooling process. The bronze/gold colors are when it’s at its hottest, blue was cooler, and purple was the coolest. The color is impacted by its temperate at point of oxidation. If nothing else, they are cool to look at. lol! @ Pensacola, Florida

I’m really angry with myself, had I counted the stones from the last pic (on the white towel) I would have realized three were missing from the batch of 25. I did end up finding them, only when I moved the other towel they were on and two of them fell to the ground. One made it unscathed but this poor baby did not. 😭😭😭 Don’t worry though, I didn’t toss it out- it will start the tumbling process again to be smoothed out. It will just end up a smaller, smoother version of what is left of it now! 💙💙💙 @ Pensacola, Florida

I cannot believe how many are ready for polish! Since I only polish small batches at a time I think my schedule will be 1) Infinite 2) Howlite small batch 3) Sodalite small batch and then alternate Howlite and Sodalite until they are finished and then move on to 4) Labradorite 5) Moonstone and go from there! Wish me luck!!! 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼 @ Pensacola, Florida
