Siderite is a mineral composed of iron(II) carbonate. Siderite is both an iron ore and gangue mineral. Its principal economic value lies in its high iron content and the absence of process contaminants such as sulphur or phosphorous. It is part of a large group of isomorphous minerals, the calcite group carbonates, which share similar physical properties, and rhombohedral crystal form. Siderite is a crystal that encourages positive thoughts and creative ideas. It helps you to remain calm and strong during times when you need to make tough decisions. It inspires you to approach your work or career with commitment and determination.

Chalcopyrite is a Copper iron sulfide mineral that was first found in 1725 by J.F Henckel. Chalcopyrite is a powerful stone that activates and aligns all chakras. It's a powerful tool that has been used to remove blockages of chakras by shamans and reiki professionals. This stone offers up transformative energies that assist in changing of habits, routines and lifestyles. Working with this stone will help one in finding their own way and life meaning. Carrying this stone daily is ideal for anyone feeling like their “stuck” in the same daily motions and are looking for a sudden change.

Barite is a mineral composed of barium sulphate (BaSO4). It receives its name from the Greek word "barys" which means "heavy." This name is in response to barite's high specific gravity of 4.5, which is exceptional for a non-metallic mineral. The high specific gravity of barite makes it suitable for a wide range of industrial, medical, and manufacturing uses. Barite also serves as the principal ore of barium. Barite can be used as a tool for easing anxiety. Barite helps with healing from trauma. Barite is a crystal for personal freedom and accepting one’s power. Barite can promote the process of catharsis, a purging and purification that releases repressed emotions.
