Pink Creedite Specimen – Qinglong Mine, China
Pink Creedite Specimen – Qinglong Mine, China
Description
A rare pink creedite specimen from the famed Qinglong Mine in Guizhou, China. Delicate needle-like crystals radiate in glassy, fanned sprays with a soft rose hue that catches the light beautifully. Pink is among the least common colours for creedite, and with the Qinglong Mine now closed, specimens from this locality are becoming increasingly hard to source.
Creedite is a rare calcium aluminum sulfate mineral that forms in fluorine-rich hydrothermal deposits, developing slender prisms that grow outward in radiating, starburst clusters, the structure seen here. Trace elements during formation produce its range of colours, from colourless through lavender and pink.
Creedite is associated with clarity, elevated awareness, and creative energy. Pink creedite in particular is connected to the heart, compassion, emotional healing, and self-acceptance, a gentle choice for calm, restorative spaces.

Note
All crystals and ceramic works offered by Atelier Lithic are inherently unique. Variations in size, colour, surface texture, and form are natural and should be expected.
Crystals are natural materials formed in the earth and may include surface irregularities such as natural fissures, internal veils, growth marks, contact points from where the crystal was attached to the host rock, or areas where the specimen was mined or extracted. These features are part of the crystal’s natural formation and are not considered defects. Defects are disclosed within the item description.
For crystals:
- When a listing includes numbered options (for example, 001, 002, etc.), each number corresponds to a specific crystal shown in the photos. Selecting a number means you will receive that exact crystal.
- When a crystal is shown as a group or range and sold as a quantity of one without numbered options, the images represent examples of what is available. You will receive one crystal, selected from the group, with natural variation.
For ceramics:
- All ceramic pieces are one of a kind. Unless otherwise stated, you will receive the exact piece shown in the listing photos.
