Gem mining has a devastating impact on the environment. While your intention may be to “nourish your chakra” you have conveniently turned a blind eye to the catastrophic and irreversible damage being inflicted on fragile ecosystems. For example, for every stone extracted, 20 tons of mine waste is generated. Where does that waste go? It goes into water sources, air, soil, plant life, animal life and into our bodies. Please don’t support gem mining nor the people that try to profit from it.
