雷擊水晶或雷水晶Lightning Strike Quartz
顧名思義,就是受到雷擊過的水晶,
想想,雷電的力量多麼強大呀,
打在水晶上,所殘留的能量一定是驚人且有別於一般水晶的。
除了水晶原本的大地之母能量外,還結合天空雷電的能量,天地能量合而為一。
一般水晶有破損肯定是減損其價值或價格,
斷掉的那就更不用說了,
但是雷水晶是唯一的例外,
它要是上頭有個幾道雷擊紋或斷成可以完全密合的兩節而且還有雷擊紋可以上下連接的話,
那就是精品中的精品,
可是以外觀來看的話,
那可能已經破到慘不忍睹!
留有明顯雷擊痕的雷水晶其實並不多,
以雷水晶而言這樣算精品,
大部分的雷水晶只會在水晶上頭留下一處或多處的損傷。
以下是國外英文介紹,大意如下,僅供參考。
雷擊水晶,來自巴西Serra de Espinhaco Mountains,該山脈因為地型關係,常出現雷陣雨。多年來,巴西Serra de Espinhaco山脈的礦工發現“閃閃發光的石頭”。該地經常受到地雷雷暴襲擊。有趣的是,地形閃電具有一些特殊的特徵:達到16萬m / s(524,934 ft / s)的速度,達到了等離子體溫度為30,000°C(納秒)。由這種非常快速的加熱和冷卻引起的壓力以及強烈的電荷和高壓,在受影響的石英晶體的表面上產生了特徵曲折的斷裂雷擊紋路。
在實驗室環境中將閃電對石英晶體的影響再現出來已被證明是非常具有挑戰性的。在探索了各種方法來嘗試重現特徵模式之後,研究得出結論,這種模式不能由任何機械過程產生。
為了形成這些晶體,它需要地質,形態,氣候和氣象條件的獨特組合。這意味著閃電的石英是非常稀缺的,使其成為礦物和寶石收藏家的高價值物品。
對形而上學和水晶療癒感興趣的人認為,雷擊水晶具有獨特而強大的品質。
因為越大根又完整,雷紋明顯。頭沒被雷擊斷的越稀有,價格呈等比級數上升,從數百元到好幾萬都有,供大家參考。
The Espinhaco range is frequently hit by orographic thunderstorms, which produce the greatest number of lightning strikes. Interestingly, orographic lightning has some peculiar features: it reaches velocities of 160,000 m/s (524,934 ft/s), and it achieves plasma temperatures of 30,000°C in nanoseconds. Evidences of the effect of this special lightning on lightning-struck quartz crystals are the presence of beta-quartz (which only forms at temperatures over 573°C), along with the presence of cristobalite, the high-temperature modification of quartz (which forms at temperatures of about 1,715°C). Also, an enormous pressure of about 35.00 bar (508 psi) is evidence by the presence of coesite, the rare high-pressure polymorph of quartz. The stresses caused by this very rapid heating and cooling, along with the intense electrical charge and the high pressure, creates a characteristic zig-zag fracture pattern on the surface of the affected quartz crystals.
Reproducing the effects of lightning on quartz crystals in a laboratory setting has proven to be very challenging. After exploring a variety of methods to try to reproduce the characteristic patterns, the study concluded that this pattern cannot be created by any mechanical process.
At the high-voltage lab at the Technical Institute of Vienna, Austria and at Ilmenau University in Germany, scientists were finally able to match the unique, shallow zig-zag lightning tracks on quartz that is the hallmark of lightning struck quartz. To form these crystals it takes a unique combination of geological, morphological, climatological, and meteorological conditions. This means that lightning-struck quartz is very scarce, making it a highly valued item for mineral and gem collectors.
People who are interested in metaphysics and crystal healing believe that lightning-struck quartz crystals have unique and powerful qualities
