Captivating Ajoite in Quartz Matrix pendant, wrapped in Copper.
Ajoite in Quartz Matrix is a highly sought-after and rare mineral combination, known for its striking blue-green inclusions within clear or milky quartz. Ajoite itself is a hydrous sodium potassium copper aluminum silicate with the formula (Na,K)Cu₇AlSi₉O₂₄(OH)₆·3H₂O, typically forming in radiating fibrous aggregates. Scientifically, this material often includes associated secondary copper minerals such as Malachite, Epidote, Piedmontite, Bornite, and Cuprite, enhancing both its mineralogical interest and visual appeal. This particular rough material has been hand-selected from the 5th Shaft mine dumpings of the historic Messina Copper Mines in South Africa—an area renowned for producing some of the world’s finest Ajoite specimens. Recently reappearing on the market after years of scarcity, these specimens are a rare find. Metaphysically, Ajoite is revered for its high vibration and heart-centered energy. It is believed to aid emotional healing, encourage forgiveness, and connect one to divine feminine energy. When found within quartz, its energetic properties are said to be amplified, promoting inner peace, spiritual insight, and alignment with higher consciousness. Approximate measurements:
