Oregon Sunstone is a copper-bearing labradorite feldspar that formed within ancient basaltic lava flows in southeastern Oregon. Copper incorporated into the feldspar is responsible for the distinctive yellow, peach, red, green, and copper-toned colours found in this material, and tiny copper platelets can produce a glittering effect known as schiller. The best-known deposits occur in the remote high desert around Plush, Oregon, and Oregon Sunstone is the official state gemstone of Oregon. Mining remains closely tied to relatively small independent mines and cutters today.

Metaphysically, Sunstone is associated with confidence, independence, vitality, optimism, and personal direction. It is often used as a symbolic stone for self-reliance, motivation, and moving forward with greater clarity and purpose. These associations come from spiritual and crystal traditions rather than scientifically established properties.
