Discover The Largest Reserve Of Lemurian Crystal
According to the City Hall of Cristalina, lemurian crystal can be found in other regions of the world. However, there is no reserve that compares to the mineral volume found in the world’s largest reserve of lemurian crystal within the municipality’s territory.
The Secretary of Culture and Tourism of Cristalina, Luciana Passos, stated that the world’s largest reserves of crystals are so vast that, since their discovery in the region in the 18th century, only 5% of the mineral has been extracted.

A group consisting of 45 professionals from the city is responsible for polishing and distributing lemurian crystal from Cristalina to be sold and displayed at fairs and stores in different locations. The president of the Association of Artisans, Miners, and Gold Panners of Cristalina, Willian Souto, stated that the group’s handicrafts are taken to national fairs and are successful in both national and foreign markets.
In July 2024, Willian took the artisans’ work to a craft fair held in Olinda (PE). The exhibition served for sale and demonstration of the work. Works from the members were announced, showcasing jewelry and other pieces. It’s a very good fair, both for business during the fair and for future business.
José Tristão Shares His Success Story With Lemurian Crystal
Geraldo José Tristão, who has been working with the mineral in Cristalina for over 20 years, shared that he was introduced to the crystal by a girlfriend. It was love at first sight. Tristão took a polishing and goldsmithing course and continued to improve his craft, and today he is married to the girlfriend who introduced him to crystals.
The artisan also mentioned that in a good month, he sells around 10,000 handcrafted pieces and jewelry, which have a minimum value of R$ 5 and a maximum of R$ 12,000. According to Geraldo José, perhaps the secret to success is the very polishing he does. Thus, there is a unique and original design.
According to information from the City Hall of Cristalina, gold panners who came to the region in search of gold and emeralds found rock crystal in the year 1797. The mineral, found in abundance in the region, gave its name to the Serra dos Cristais.
Luciana Passos, Secretary of Culture and Tourism of Cristalina, stated that the city, with the largest reserve of lemurian crystal, offers a tourism experience where visitors can search for their own crystal.
Sustainable exploration of these reserves is crucial to ensure that Cristalina continues to thrive without depleting its natural resources. The city strives to balance economic development with environmental preservation, ensuring that this valuable reserve continues to benefit future generations.
