History
Phoenix Stone is found in the U.S and Africa. Also known as Phoenix Rising Stone, or Ajoite. The meaning of the name of this stone comes from Ajo, Arizona where it was first discovered. Phoenix Stone was used by ancient cultures for its grounding and healing abilities. It may also be called Ajo Quartz when it occurs as an inclusion in quartz. It has also been found in Zimbabwe and South Africa. It is now becoming hard to find, even rare, to get this stone on its own, on a stone matrix
Phoenix Stone is a relatively new stone, therefor it’s hard to track down it’s origin. Ajoite, the base mineral of Phoenix stone has been around for a little longer but still has a short history.
Ajoite was first discovered in 1941 in Ajo, Pima County, Arizona, USA, which is also the source of its name. However, it gained significant attention when it was found in quartz crystals from the Messina Mine in Limpopo Province, South Africa. Many people think Ajoite was found in Arizona’s Ajo mine area during a lightning storm, which adds to its mystery.
