Polished Bloodstone Points x 3 From Swaziland
A NOTE FROM NICK
3 x Swazi Bloodstone Polished Display Crystals. This Unique Material comes from the top of a VERY remote Swaziland Mountain, and not only has the nice red patterns but is, in fact, a Banket Conglomerate such as you find gold in. These have Golden Pyrite specks and quite possibly have au content as there are artisanal Gold mines close by.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Seftonite – Rare African Bloodstone from Swaziland
Seftonite, also known as African Bloodstone, carries a rare and mystical charm. Sourced from the rugged, hard-to-reach mines of Swaziland, this brecciated Chalcedony-like gem boasts stunning Pyrite inclusions and vivid Red Jasper in a grey, often clear matrix. With the original deposit no longer being mined, this material is now incredibly rare. This is actually a Banket Conglomerate with the Golden Pyrite flecks possibly containing Gold, as there are several Artisanal Au Mines close by.
