Sunstone is a member of the feldspar group of minerals. Some sunstones can have a sparkly, metallic-looking luster caused by flat, plate-like reflective inclusions. This appearance is called aventurescence. Inclusions in sunstone can be hematite, copper, and/or other minerals. Aventurescent feldspar has been found in Australia, Canada, China, Congo, Ethiopia, India, Mexico, Norway, Russia, Sri Lanka, Tanzania, the United States (Oregon, New York, Virginia, Pennsylvania) and other localities. Sunstone is said to clear and cleanse all the chakras, restoring joy and nurturing the spirit!
