Download or read book Quartz and Its Varieties written by Albert C. Bates and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Quartz and Its Varieties: Including Rock Crystal, Amethyst, Agate, Jasper, Agatized Wood, Smoky Quartz With a Description of Localities Quartz and its Varieties was printed in parts, beginning in the June and ending in the December, 1895, number of The Mineral Collector. In writing the articles, my aim has been to describe in detail the famous old localities which still afford specimens of the mineral, the more recently discovered and little known localities, and the character of the material found at each of them. I have avoided, as far as possible, mention of the exhausted localities, or those which have afforded a very limited supply of specimens, even though they were of exceptional interest. I realize that many localities worth recording have not been mentioned, for the reason that the facts relating to them were not accessible to me. The editor of The Mineral Collector, Mr. Chamberlain, and the few collectors who have expressed an opinion relative to the matter, believe that if the articles were printed in pamphlet form, they would be acceptable to collectors generally. Because of the arrangement of the localities, an index is not considered necessary. I shall be glad to be informed of any American localities affording quartz or any of its varieties, not fully mentioned in the following pages.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stones of the New Consciousness begins with a new approach to meditation with stones, and to the possibility of conscious relationship with the spiritual beings who express themselves in our world as crystals and minerals. This beautifully designed book examines the most important stones that help accelerate and enhance human evolution. Each entry is illustrated with color photos of exceptional examples. The stones include Moldavite, the extraterrestrial amorphous crystal; Nuummite, the oldest gemstone on Earth; and Circle Stones, the highly energetic Flint found in crop circle formations. Other featured rarities include Nirvana Quartz from the Himalayas and high-vibrational Natrolite from the emerald mines of Russia. Author Robert Simmons includes historical and mythological references for each stone, positing that the fabled Stone of the Holy Grail and the Philosopher's Stone of the alchemists may have physical counterparts among the materials discussed. Simmons presents practices for deepening one's awareness of the stones' gifts--from expanding one's consciousness, to healing, to fulfilling one's personal and collective destiny. While emphasizing direct contact with stones, the book also explores crystal energy tools, energy environments, and applications such as stone elixirs and essences that can aid anyone on a spiritual path.
