SCIENCE
The process of fossilisation is a rare occurrence and not all organic material has the opportunity to become fossilised. The process is called permineralisation and occurs when minerals such as silica are deposited into the small cavities and empty spaces where solid organic material once was. The organic material is required to be in an oxygen free environment and relatively undisturbed for millions of years.
These turtle poos were fortunate to be dropped underwater and covered in sand and sediments, ripe for the fossilisation process.

OUR ETHICS
Yes, our crystals are ethically sourced & sold.

Ethical mining/sourcing refers to the conditions in which a crystal is unearthed and the people and/or businesses that do it. Whilst a mineral may be sourced ethically from the earth, many stones are sent to factories in other countries for cutting and polishing into spheres and generators.
The label of ethics also applies to the selling and consumer purchasing.
Crystals must be correctly identified, certified as natural with any treatments disclosed. Too often crystals are lab grown or treated in a lab and sold as natural. This is incredibly important to us (and our in-house gemmologist) so each piece is tested and certified and accompanied by and authenticity card.
We pride ourselves on our crystal ethics, from earth to home.
