In Artigas, Uruguay—famous for its amethyst—miners at the Santa Rosa mine made an incredible discovery.
A 176-pound rock that looked ordinary from the outside revealed two perfectly matching heart-shaped crystal cavities when split open. The rare amethyst geode, nicknamed “The New Treasure,” is valued between $100,000 and $120,000, and its owners refuse to separate the halves.
Formed over millions of years inside volcanic rock, the perfectly aligned hearts are something miners say they’ve never seen before.
