Mined from: Hail Mary Pocket, Harrison Lake, British Columbia, Canada
Description: The ametrines from the King Citrine Claim are very new to market. Only a small number were dug and brought out from a few expeditions prior to 2025. From 2025 onward, specimens have been getting pulled from pockets at the Mount Breakenridge site.
Geologically, the King Citrine Mine Project is a high-altitude, fracture-controlled, multi-phase hydrothermal quartz system hosted in a complex plutonic nunatak setting. The dig site appears to expose part of a pluton that has been structurally tilted or rotated, with mineralized quartz pockets occurring along fractures, cavities, and altered zones within the exposed mountain mass. As the surrounding glacier continues to recede, more of this complex system is being uncovered, exposing new pocket zones that were previously hidden beneath ice. Access is extremely limited. A helicopter is required to reach the remote site high on Mount Breakenridge, and the claim can only be worked for a couple months of the year due to snow, weather hazards, and mountain conditions.
The ametrine is essentially a citrine-core crystal with a secondary growth forming as an asymmetrical jacket. That jacket is better known as a scepter growth, though in these specimens it has only formed as a thin layer over part of the crystal. This outer jacket is amethyst, and the pricing of our ametrines tends to reflect how clearly that purple layer can be seen. In general, the more expensive ametrines show stronger and more visible purple coloration.
Metaphysically, these ametrines carry the combined energy of citrine and amethyst in a single crystal. The citrine core is commonly associated with confidence, manifestation, abundance, and personal power, while the amethyst jacket brings in the energy of intuition, calm, spiritual awareness, and protection. Because the amethyst formed as a later growth over the citrine, these specimens can be seen as a crystal of transformation, where grounded personal power is wrapped with higher spiritual awareness.
Rubble Rock and Gem holds the sole claim to this site, with no surrounding digs producing this material. Very few of these crystals come out each year, with approximately 40 ametrine specimens recovered annually at most. This makes the King Citrine ametrines a highly limited, claim-specific material with extremely restricted yearly availability.
