Something I hadn’t really thought about before I started being insane about rocks is that there are several semi common rocks you can find in shops around the world (pyrite suns, ocean jasper to name a few off the top of my head) where they just aren’t any more or a very limited amount left in the earth, pyrite suns require very specific conditions to form, and for some reason those conditions only happened in a few places in Illinois. When ocean jasper was first discovered it was estimated there was a lot more of it than there was, 8 veins were dug up and when mining companies went to move on to the 9th, there just wasn’t one. You can find both these things for less than $20 online or in a rock shop (and both are very beautiful) but it makes me wonder how these things will be thought of a couple hundred years from now, as the remaining items in circulation get lost to time or destroyed, will they be rumors or priceless artifacts? Or will they be forgotten entirely until one day archaeological digs searching for 21st century artifacts uncover the hidden gems of the time, the spotted pinks blues and grey greens of ocean jasper carved in the shape of a mass produced bulbasaur statue.
