What is Magnesium?
Although there have been reports of native Magnesium Ore being found in Russia, the majority of Magnesium Ore crystals available in the market are now lab-grown products. These lab-grown Magnesium Ore crystals exhibit a deceptive lightness in weight, with delicate, feather-like formations that adorn their structure. However, it's important to handle them with care due to their fragile nature.
