Utah Tiffany Stone, also known as “bertrandite,” is a rare and highly valued gemstone found primarily in the now closed Brush Wellman Beryllium Mine in Juab County, Utah. Its distinctive colors range from lavender, purple, and violet to white, cream, and occasionally yellow, black, or blue. These colors are often the result of impurities and mineral inclusions within the stone, creating beautiful marbled or mottled patterns.
Tiffany Stone is primarily composed of opalized fluorite, mixed with minerals such as quartz, chalcedony, and bertrandite (which can contain beryllium). The stone’s captivating appearance and scarcity make it popular among collectors and jewelry makers. However, because the primary mining location is a restricted beryllium mine, access is limited, which adds to its rarity and value on the market.
In metaphysical circles, Tiffany Stone is believed to enhance intuition and emotional clarity, making it a favorite among those seeking spiritual connections and inner growth.
