What Makes This Unique
Thunder Bay District of Ontario is world famous for its distinctive, ancient amethyst crystals. Mined ourselves from an undisclosed private mine site in McTavish Township, in the Thunder Bay District, this rare specimen—referred to as Meteoric Amethyst, Thunder Bay Red Amethyst, Canadian Amethyst, and Auralite 23—is highly sought after by collectors worldwide.
This unique ametrine specimen features a striking citrine phantom point, where a golden-yellow citrine formation lies within the structure of amethyst. Ametrine, a natural blend of amethyst and citrine, showcases the beautiful interplay between purple and golden hues, resulting from shifts in iron oxidation levels during the crystal’s formation. The citrine phantom, a rare phenomenon, represents a layer of citrine growth encapsulated within the ametrine crystal, making this specimen both visually captivating and geologically intriguing. Collectors prize phantom points for their unique formation process, as they reveal the crystal's growth history, creating a captivating “phantom” effect that draws the eye.
Metaphysical Benefits

The citrine phantom point amplifies the stone’s influence on confidence and success, symbolizing inner growth and the ability to overcome obstacles. Ideal for meditation or as a powerful addition to any healing toolkit, this ametrine specimen is perfect for those seeking emotional clarity, resilience, and spiritual harmony.
