Merlinite Healing Properties
These funky tumbled Merlinites are ideal for people who like to know the 'story' behind their healing crystals. Merlinite is a rare combination of Quartz and Manganese Oxide that comes from New Mexico. Now imagine an old miner heaping rough Merlinite into a bucket. Once a year he gets together with another miner that he's known for decades, "wanna trade?" they ask each other. It's the same trade every year, a bit of Merlinite for a bit of Nuummite from Greenland. This rough Merlinite rarely polishes completely smooth. Instead they're full of pits and grooves as the matrix rock gets knocked off by the tumbling. About 1/2 of the stock is pure black Manganese Oxide, but Moonrise Crystals takes care of Quality Control, so all these Merlinites have a nice mixture of textures and colors. Sometimes the Quartz is colorless and other times it has a faint blueish tone. Many of them have fascinating swirls that can best be seen under a bright light - so look closely!

Merlinite Healing, Mineralogy, and History
Published May 2018 • Updated June 2022 • Read Time: 7 minutes
Merlinite is a tradename for a fusion of white Quartz and black Managnese oxide. Originally, this name was only used for crystals mined in New Mexico, USA. However, a similar deposit has since been found in Cornwall, Great Britain. Cornwall is closely associated with the legendary Merlin and was the birthplace of King Arthur. Merlinite is a wonderful stone for modern day shamans, druids and other forms of Old Magic. The combination of light and dark, black and white, helps us to explore these same dualities with courage and wisdom. Merlinite also encourages life-long-learning and the special bond between teachers and mentors and their students. […]

The crystals arrived a few days ago and have already become good friends :) I’ve had especially powerful results combining the calcite with the merlinite and selenite, and the garnet has been particularly grounding for me as well
