PRODUCT INFORMATION


General Description

Spirit Quartz, also known as Cactus Quartz, is a unique quartz habit found exclusively in the Boekenhouthoek deposits of South Africa. Since its discovery, specimens from these deposits have been highly sought after. Younger deposits exhibit exceptional dark and intense colours, while more recent ones showcase lighter shades. Some sections even produce a mix of Amethyst and Citrine coloration, giving rise to the name 'Ametrine Spirit Quartz.' However, Amethyst Spirit Quartz represents only 1% of the mined deposits. The majority of Spirit Quartz is 'white,' with subtle variations in colour. Current excavations yield Amethyst material ranging from very pale lilac to a darker purple tone, as well as plate-like specimens with the classic, rich colour intensity reminiscent of old-school deposits. Material lacking the unique spirit/cactus habit is referred to as Sunburst Amethyst due to its complex colour distribution. Despite the absence of the distinctive habit, the 'sunburst' material compensates with phantom-like colour distribution. Price is grade dependent. Items are as shown.

Always the very best service and quality specimens, packed perfectly nd arrives safely

These people know rocks and crystals!! Pleasure to deal with!!

After some unfortunate run-ins with dishonest international mineral dealers, I have FINALLY found a trustworthy, honest, and established wholesale mineral company. I have loved every item I have purchased here, they have an amazing selection from various areas in Africa, the prices are great, and shipping is exceptional - both honestly priced and fast. These guys work directly with many miners and local lapidarists etc, so you're also supporting the local economy. They're happy to tell you where each item comes from, and sometimes even the people who mine them 😊 Don't be scared by order mimimums - they allow you to stockpile. But you're buying rocks, so it really doesn't take long to meet the 10kg requirement 😉 Even small shops can benefit from their selection - they offer mixed flats, smaller flats, or for collectors you can get one or two larger items for a steal. The website is full of goodies - you can spend HOURS on there. And if you can, be sure to catch the livesales on YouTube - you tend to see some of the best items there first - catch them if you can, lol. Francis and Cara are awesome, you'll have fun chatting with them, they'll educate you about the stones, you can ask questions, you'll see first hand the great people and company they are, and you'll have a great time while you're at it. Customer service is prompt, responsive, and courteous. I can't recommend these guys enough. 10 out of 10 - If you're looking for African/Madagascan minerals, buy them here! 💯💯💯

Sir How Can We Contact You please Infrom Me

Nick runs a great business here all the way around. Francis/Cara are awesome on the live shows and also ensuring I get what I need in regards to material. The invoicing, shipping, photography teams are all top notch. The operation runs smooth and any questions they are willing to answer immediately. The methods of communication and responsiveness are excellent. As a client, I would recommend TopRock to any business looking for great rocks and minerals.

Everytime I look at the specimens I get from Toprocks, I think what an amazing job their miners and lapidarists do on EVERY piece!!! Also, everyone I have interacted with here has been amazing. Photos are always on point(learned the hard way that's not the case with all mineral sellers)and Francis keeps the lives entertaining!!! 🫶🏻 I can't wait for our next shipment!!!

This is a great store for professionals with a huge assortment of stones and minerals and reasonable prices. The company's blog with descriptions of the stones and the company's Youtube channel with thematic videos are also valuable.
I also appreciated the quick email feedback from the company's managers.
