The 2007 discovery of Alien Eye Fluorite in Erongo, Namibia remains a standout moment in mineral collecting history. These bi-colored crystals, known for their striking zoning and alien-like appearance, are now considered one of the most desirable fluorite finds of the 21st century.

In recent years, certain quartz specimens displaying an internal blue glow or shimmer have captured the attention of collectors and energy workers alike. Often referred to as “Blue Needle Quartz” or “Angel Feather Quartz,” these crystals exhibit a striking blue shaft or haze when viewed in the right lighting—often under strong directional light or camera flash.

Is it rare? Not particularly.

We are proud to introduce Corinto Starfire, a remarkable new quartz find from the Corinto region of Brazil. Acquired in 2022, these specimens display an extraordinary multi-layered, parallel growth habit enveloping a central, clear quartz core.
