History and Uses
These crystals are also sometimes called Spectre Crystals, Ghost Crystals or Shadow Crystals. They contain inclusions of green, red or white clinochlore which can also be less commonly found in Amethyst, Citrine, Smoky Quartz and Danburite.
Traditionally, they have been used by healers to cleanse the aura, chakras, energy meridians and environment and also to detoxify the physical body.
Geological Description
Chlorite Phantom Crystals occur when a layer of Chlorite is deposited on the crystal’s termination during a growth cycle. Then, the crystal continues to grow. If the crystal is clear, it creates a “phantom”. This phenomenon manifests as a green, ghost-like shape within the crystal itself.
Chlorite is a magnesium iron aluminium silicate with a hardness of 2 to 2.5 but the overall crystal has a hardness of 7, as with all Quartz. Chlorite Phantom Crystals are found in many places worldwide but are mostly mined in Brazil and Madagascar.
