Ethical Sourcing Requires Transparency

Supply Chain for Petalite

This Petalite comes from a co-op of artisanal miners in Itinga, Minas Gerais, Brazil.  The 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.

Petalite Healing, Mineralogy, and History

Published October 2016  •  Updated August 2024  •  Read Time: 7 minutes
Petalite is a phyllosilicate mineral that is a major source for lithium.  It is found around the world and is usually white or tan.  But one mine in Namibia is full of bright pink Petalite! Rumors swirl that the mine has payed out, but then the miners find another seam and more Pink Petalite arrives on the market.  Energetically, it is similar to Kunzite.  Both of them are love stones that help us to open our heart.  These two love stones were identified by the same scientists and grow in the same environment, making them best-friends and allies.  Petalite is particularly good when we need to love and accept ourselves better, which in turn allows us to love the whole world.

    Love this! Perfect addition to my collection!

  3. Kristin H. (Connecticut)

    I recently bought 7 crystals and just came back to buy more for a grid. They are all beautiful and “feel good”, but the petalite is especially pure and powerful. I have never held a crystal that feels so much like holding “light,” and like I’m being wrapped in angels’ wings. I would recommend it to anyone needing to feel a brief respite from this earth plane, and to feel love and comfort from beyond. It’s also very cleansing and clearing, similar to selenite.

    This rough petalite is a surprising favorite. I’ve never encountered a crystal with similar energy; so powerful and confidence boosting while still being soothing.
