Juicy orange calcite is an energizing and uplifting stone that enhances creativity. It is considered an overall stone of balance. Locality: Ojuela Mine at Mapimí in the Mapimí district, Durango, Mexico Size: Average size 1.0" x 1.0" x 1.0" Ranging in size up to 1.0" x 2.0" x .25" to 1.0 " x 2.0" x 1.0" The size of these orange calcite pieces are perfect for carrying with you, using in grid work, mojo bags and crystal healing layouts. You can keep a bowl of them in your room to imbue your space with its vibrant, uplifting energy. The orange color is due to included, microscopic particles of hematite, or iron oxide. This calcite has taken a quick dip in an hydrochloric acid to dissolve a thin surface layer of the calcite to create a smooth, glassy luster that greatly improves translucency and intensifies color. Calcite has a wide variety of colors and crystal habits, which is one of the reasons it is one of my all-time favorites. You can never get bored with calcite. I find all calcites to be extremely calming and peaceful. Calcites are known to be energy amplifiers and cleansers. Also known as “the student’s stone”, aiding in mental clarity and discernment,helping to retain information when studying.
