Cavansite Info.

Cavansite is a beautiful and rare mineral, which explains its recent popularity. It was only discovered in the last 30 years and is found in only a few localities.  It's color is greenish blue to deep ocean blue.  Cavansite occurs as a secondary mineral in basaltic and andesitic rocks along with a variety of zeolite minerals.
​
Cavansites' crystal habits are mainly crystal aggregates that consist of tufts or spherical rosettes with pointed crystals.

Cavansite was first described as a blue associate of zeolites in 1968 by L.W. Staples. The locality was a road cut near Owyhee Dam, Malheur County, Oregon.  The material first came to the Tucson Show in early 1989. It was an immediate hit, with its vibrant blue color. ​Metaphysical uses for Cavansite include:

• Stimulating and focusing intuition.
• Bringing thoughtfulness to one’s atmosphere.
• Inspiring new ideas.
• Removing faulty thoughts and beliefs.
• Providing a protective energy for homes and offices.
