Geology of Pietersite

Pietersite is a brecciated variety of quartz that forms when crocidolite fibers (similar to those found in tiger’s eye) are naturally fractured and re-cemented by quartz over millions of years. This process creates its famous storm-like patterns of gold, brown, red, and blue. Found in only a few places on Earth, most notably Namibia and China, pietersite is a rare and collectible quartz family gemstone. With a Mohs hardness of 6.5–7, it is durable for jewelry but should be protected from harsh chemicals and prolonged exposure to solvents or acids.

Known as the “Stone of Transformation” or “Vision Stone,” pietersite is associated with change, adaptability, and inner strength. In metaphysical traditions, pietersite is said to:
