Description
Phosphosiderite was originally discovered by a French mineralogist, Alfred Lewis Oliver Legrand Des Cloizeaux, in 1858. However, it was first classified as a "type I hurealite" upon discovery (which isn’t an accurate description).
It wasn’t until 1890 that phosphosiderite earned its formal name — thanks to German authors Willy Bruhns and Karl Heinrich Emil Georg Busz.
Ancient healers believed phosphosiderite could absorb negative energies, diluting them and releasing them to the world as positive energy. They also believed it could heal diseases, particularly chronic health problems.
Phosphosiderite is often referred to as a “jewel nugget of healing and hope.” It’s believed to contain a lovely healing and calming vibration that helps the body at every level. Simply touching the stone's surface is thought to draw you to its tranquil energy and instantly boost your overall being.
