The number 23 in this gemstone’s name refers to the number of minerals contained in it, although your average Auralite stone often contains seven or less. Scientists theorize that Auralite 23 was brought into being when Earth was hit by meteorites, which struck Amethyst deposits, resulting in the mineral’s unique composition. The average piece often contains minerals such as Magnetite, Silver, Platinum, Copper, Gialite and Epidote to name a few. While purple Amethyst can be found all over the world, Auralite 23 only exists in the area just north of Lake Superior in Ontario, Canada. This makes it a rare and sought-after gem. As of now, no other deposits have been discovered anywhere else around the globe. It was only discovered in 2007 which is surprising, since it has existed for over a billion years.
