Magnetite Rough - Height: 15 cm - Width: 11 cm- 1810 g - (1)

Splendid collectible specimen of Magnetite with Talc from the historic Brosso Mine, Salvere level, in Val Chiusella, Turin, Italy. The sample shows an exceptional and classic Piedmontese mineral association of the highest aesthetic level. On the matrix stands a very rich aggregate of magnetite crystals of notable size, characterized by an octahedral habit and an extraordinarily sharp rhombo-dodecahedral form, with sharp edges and well-developed faces. The crystals display their typical dark black-grey color and a pronounced sub-metallic luster. To provide contrast and highlight the complex geometry of magnetite there is a widespread and snowy white-creamy microcrystalline talc base, which fills the interstices and partially envelops the crystals, creating a piece highly representative of the famous Salvere level. In crystal therapy, magnetite is considered one of the most powerful grounding and protective stones, thanks to its natural magnetic properties that help balance the body's energy flows, align the chakras, and act as a shield against negativity. The synergy with talc imbues a deep sense of calm, purity, and emotional stability, helping to release accumulated stress and to connect with the earth's more harmonious and regenerating frequencies. The bases and supports present in the photo are for display purposes only and are not included in the sale. No shipping outside the EU.
