Merlinite Slice (Close up lit from behind)

Merlinite is a naturally occurring combination of Quartz (silicon dioxide) and Psilomelane (manganese oxide).

Some Merlinite occurs in massive form, with mixed areas of white Quartz and black Psilomelane. Other specimens appear as dark grey or black botryoidal forms coated with sparkling druzy Quartz crystal. The name Merlinite is not a mineral term but was coined by metaphysical users as a word alluding to its energies. The only known source of Merlinite is in New Mexico, USA.

 

Merlinite is considered to be a very spiritual/magical stone and is believed to hold the imprint of the combined knowledge of shamans, alchemist, magician-priests, and other workers of magic. It is said to be a powerful ally for shamanic work, magical practices and healing.
