History & Symbolism: Cavansite was first described in 1967 and takes its name from its primary chemical components: calcium, vanadium, and silicon. While found in only a few locations worldwide, the finest specimens are widely considered to come from the basalt quarries surrounding Poona (Pune), India. Its vivid blue crystal sprays have made it one of the most recognizable modern mineral discoveries. In contemporary crystal traditions, Cavansite is often associated with insight, curiosity, and expanded awareness.
