We are very excited to introduce our latest source, a miner in Diamantina, Minas Gerais, Brazil, who is supplying us with amazingly clear crystal clusters, smoky quartz, cathedral quartz, and some of the best Lemurians I’ve seen. There is a small collection of pieces from him that are gorgeous points, many double terminated, with elestial formation that are breath-taking.
