Crushed RARE Sonora Sunrise/Sunset Powder for Metaphysical and Reiki Projects

Description: Crushed Sonora Sunrise/Sunset Powder from Mexico, Fine Crush (<0.25mm) for Inlay, Metaphysical Resin Art, or Pigment Applications ABOUT SONORA SUNRISESonora Sunrise, also known as Sonora Sunset, is a rare rock that contains three dominant minerals: green chrysocolla, crimson cuprite, and tenorite (black iron oxide). Sonora Sunrise comes from only one mine in the world, the Milpillas copper mine, located in the state of Sonora, Mexico. This mine opened in 2006, but was closed in 2019, when it became less economical to continue mining ore. Thankfully, many beautiful specimens were saved during the mine's limited operation; however, they are rare. Most specimens have been sold as lapidary slabs for designer cabochons and rough rock is scarce.This particular small batch of crushed Sonora Sunrise is a perfect example of premium quality material. The green chrysocolla and the crimson cuprite are evenly distributed and are very rich in color when the material is wet or sealed with an adhesive. This material is a great choice for woodworking projects, since chrysocolla, cuprite, and tenorite are relatively soft minerals. MATERIAL SIZEOur powdered material consists of mostly silt and clay sized particles (<0.25mm). Our powders do have a slight grit to them. Powdered minerals are great for filling in small cracks or voids, orgonite pyramids, resin molds, memorial and resin jewelry, ring inlay, resin art, and creating textured paints and pigments. This material is also a great gift for makers looking for unique supplies or reiki practitioners that enjoy top quality crystal powders.
