Kakortokite
Kakortokite (Pronounced as ka-Court-o-Kite) is a rare stone from the Illimaussaq Complex, at the top of the Kangerdlussaq Fjord in Southern Greenland. It is comprised of white or grey/white Syenite with red dots of Eudialyte and black lines of Arfvedsonite.
Collecting Kakortokite is a hazardous job. it is found below the clifftops, on the sheer cliff face with the waters of the Fjord hundreds of metres below. People either have to be lowered on ropes and hauled back up again, or they choose the treacherous path down from the clifftops, which is both narrow and icy. Either way, only small amounts can be bought back from a single trip.
There is not a lot of Kakortokite to be found, and, as it is extremely difficult to collect, pieces that come to market are most often small pieces between 3 grams and 10 grams in weight. Its rarity also makes it much sought after by mineral collectors, crystal healers and the jewellery trade.
This piece however, is an absolutely wonderful rough/natural piece of this high vibration stone that helps us to see life with a much more positive outlook. It really is a gorgeous piece - and an excellent size at 21grms !
It displays the unique pattern of red dots along with the occasional black rod, all held in a white matrix - which is exactly what people are looking to see in excellent specimens of Kakortokite.
This genuinely is a wonderful piece of Kakortokite, a rare mineral that is both hard to find and extremely difficult to gather or collect.
