Ethical Sourcing Requires Transparency

Supply Chain for Citrine

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 Citrine comes from small-scale mines in Aracuat, Minas Giras, Brazil. These mines have a low environmental impact.

This mine and gem dealer are a family business in Brazil. The family owns a small Lithium Quartz mine. They also have relationships with miner co-ops and lapidary co-ops around Brazil. The mother of the family is particularly passionate about ethical sourcing. All workers are safe and paid fair wages.

I first met this source at the 2020 Tucson Gem Show. I was surprised to see a sign that advertised “ethical sourcing” and immediately went to investigate. I discovered a Brazilian family business, run by a father, mother, and their sons. The business has existed for over 30 years, but recently the mother became concerned about conditions in Brazilian mines and polishing factories, and their effect on local communities. She gradually transformed the business following the principles of Fair Trade and articulated her own ethical values. Among these values are: to be environmentally friendly, work with miners co-ops, have a participatory workplace, develop long-term relationships, sponsor education for miners’ children, and respect cultural identities.

I had a long conversation with this inspiring woman, discussing both our own businesses as well as the larger industry. We already shared many of the same values, but I was intrigued by her commitment to respecting cultural identities. In Brazil, mines are often located on land owned by indigenous peoples. Often, miners are from somewhere else and usually don’t have any vested interest in protecting the local environment or distributing wealth into the local economy. To respect cultural identities means to do business with local indigenous peoples, rather than transient outsiders.

Citrine Healing, Mineralogy, and History

Published May 2015  •  Updated August 2024  •  Read Time: 8 minutes
Citrine is the golden yellow variety of Quartz and one of the happiest healing crystals.  It is found within Amethyst mines alongside Black Tourmaline, but occasionally it forms its own distinct deposits.  Natural Citrine is usually pale gold.  The vibrant yellow Citrine that is commonly sold in crystal shops is actually heat-treated low-quality Amethyst.  Citrine is one of the few  “self-cleansing” crystals that constantly cleans energy and never gets drained.  It is the energy equivalent of citrus-scented soap.  It shares its joyful vibration generously and invites us to march to our own drum and dance to the music of our heart.

    Very beautiful citrine crystal. The delivery took sometime (approximately 26 days), but it came in good condition and was well packaged. I also appreciated the small gifts that came with it.

  3. Amber F. (Idaho)

    Words cannot begin to describe the sensations and emotions that flowed through as I unwrapped and gleefully held each precious stone. When ordering from Moonrise crystals, I always spend a little extra knowing at least one stone will remain with me….at least for a bit. Others have traveled to the hands of friends and strangers who are baffled at how the stone mirrors their inner world. In those times, am simply the vessel that gets the crystals to their rightful keeper, and I’m grateful for the role (though not always easy🤣). Not once have I questioned the hands the crystals pass through or wonder if highly sensitive people like myself will struggle with any part of the energies. Grateful to the loving kindness, Julie, that you have filled your life and business with.
