Zinc ores from the Sterling Hill and Franklin areas of New Jersey are dominated by red zincite and black franklinite. This combination of minerals is amazing to see in this polished Zincite and Franklinite Tumblestone as the variation of zincite, franklinite with calcite makes it extremely awkward to obtain the perfect all-round polish.
Zincite is believed to be energising and mood-lifting. It bestows inner strength and it can aid grounding. Emotional and physical preservation is key for Franklinite and inventiveness and self expression are stimulated using this stone. The coming together of Zincite and Franklinite is said to aid creativity, physical energy and personal power.
Tumblestones are a great way to collect a variety of different crystals. Their smooth finish and handy size allows you to store them easily or keep them close to you if you choose. They show off the natural colours beautifully and can be used in a variety of different ways from crystal healing to meditation. A wonderful addition for any crystal enthusiast.
