Where can i buy a "Primordial Crystal" ? /s
- gus_massa 2y agoFrom the article: > The Jack Hills in Western Australia hold the oldest surviving material from the Earth's crust. For 4.4 billion years, the primordial minerals remained relatively unchanged by heat and pressure. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Hills https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Hills Try buying some zircon nearby. Or perhaps there are small fragments in the river nearby (ask if it's legal to pick them).
- throwup238 2y agoI believe the Jack Hills site and anything downstream is now permanently closed to mining and collecting. There are a few sites claiming to sell specimens that predate the closure but I wouldn't trust them unless I had the equipment to validate their provenance.

Someone I know got a crystal from here that had a drop of water contained in the center. It was pretty awesome. They are called enhydro crystals. https://mymodernmet.com/enhydro-crystals/ https://mymodernmet.com/enhydro-crystals/
