Purpurite is a rare manganese phosphate mineral that may also contain varying amounts of iron, leading to a range of colors. Purpurite is a secondary mineral, primarily formed by the alteration of lithiophilite, a lithium-manganese phosphate mineral generally found within pegmatites. It was first discovered and named in 1905 by Louis C. Graton and Waldemar T. Schaller. The name "Purpurite" originates from the Latin word "purpura" meaning "purple" after its stunning purple color. The primary source of high quality Purpurite is the Usakos mine in Namibia. Purpurite can also be found in the United States, Australia, France and Portugal.
Purpurite is a stone of spiritual growth, intuition and purification. Working with Purpurite will attune your body's energy to higher frequencies and raise your vibration. Purpurite helps to cleanse and remove stuck or stagnant energy. It helps you feel comfortable and peaceful during meditation and spiritual practices with its protective energy. Purpurite allows you to see clearly from a higher perspective and make decisions with guidance from your higher self.
