HEMATITE
Hematite is a metallic gray iron oxide mineral with a hardness of about 6.  Its name comes from the Greek word for blood, since when it is cut, the coolant becomes red.  Gem grade Hematite is found in Europe, Brazil and the USA.

Mystic Lore: Intuitive sources say that Hematite can assist in purification of the energies of our physical and energetic circulatory systems.  It is the most widely used stone for "grounding", and it is said to energize both the root chakra at the the base of the spine & the "Earth Star" below the feet.

The above information is intuitive.  Use discrimination to determine what is true for you.  This is not meant to replace professional medical care.

Name is derived from the Greek word for blood αἷμα haima because of the red color of powdered hematite.  Also spelled as haematite.
