At a site near the Brazilian border, Uruguayan miners discovered this geode shaped like a heart. It's an inspiring find by Uruguay Minerals, a company which appears to specialize in decorative crystals. My Modern Met talked to a representative of the company:
“We were opening the mine to work normally,” Marcos Lorenzelli of Uruguay Minerals tells My Modern Met, “but the land was difficult to work and our employees said, ‘We have to find something really nice due to the hard work we are doing.’” Their patience was rewarded with this once-in-a-lifetime find.
