Ethical Sourcing Requires Transparency

Supply Chain for Amazonite

When we know better, we do better. Ethical sourcing is a constantly evolving process. If the original sourcing for the stone still passes Moonrise Crystals’ current standards, it will be restocked as soon as possible. If the original sourcing is no longer acceptable, it will be restocked when/if a better supplier can be found.

This Amazonite comes from artisanal miners in Vakinankaratra, Madagascar.  Artisanal mining for feldspar minerals typically has a low environmental impact and would be relatively low risk for miners.

This lapidary hand polishes stones in Antananarivo, Madagascar. It is a woman-owned and family-run business. Factory workers have safe conditions and are paid fairly. The lapidary sells primarily at one major gem show in the United States. Every year the lapidary takes on a major charity project at a rural school. Previous projects have included installing bathrooms, creating a playground, and building a sunshelter for parents.

I first met the owner of the lapidary at the 2006 Gem and Mineral show in Tucson, Arizona. At that time I was working for a crystal shop in Utah and was at Tucson primarily as a “pack mule” to help carry all the stones. It was generally agreed by our crew that the “Madagascar” tent contained the most beautiful stones in the entire show.

In 2014, I embarked on my first buying trip for Moonrise Crystals. The company I knew of only as “Madagascar” was the one company I was most determined to find and buy from. This lapidary company only sells at a handful of major gem shows. The only time they are in the USA is for the Tucson Gem Show. During the rest of the year, the lapidary hand polishes their stock and also does charity work in their local community. They continue to offer some of the most beautiful tumbled stones in the industry and are among my favorite suppliers.

In 2019, Moonrise Crystals and the Madagascar lapidary company joined together to financially support a rural school in Madagascar. In 2022, we plan to build a library with books in Malagassi and French.

Amazonite Healing, Mineralogy, and History

Published July 2014  •  Updated August 2024  •  Read Time: 9 minutes
Amazonite is a popular name for blue-green Microcline, a Feldspar mineral.  It is closely related to such popular stones as Moonstone and Sunstone, both of which are used to described a variety of shimmery Feldspar minerals.   The best pieces of Amazonite will have a vivid color as well as a silvery-white iridescence that dances along the surface when light moves across it.  It’s name is tribute to the Amazons, warrior-women that lived life by their own terms.  Unsurprisingly, this stone asks us to stand up and be counted.  It’s energy sings of courage and truth.  It is a phenomenal stone for anyone who is timid and needs to find their own voice.

    I can tell the quality and ethicality because their energetics are so pure and strong. The amazonite and the blue apatite have been standouts for me personally. The amazonite always helps me stand in my power when I need extra help.
