Bergkristallgruppe «Sonne des Péz Regina», Lumbrein

In 2003, after three years of salvage work, the two emitters Michael Flepp and Alfons Derungs retrieved two large groups of rock crystals from a fissure on the Péz Regina. Already during the salvage work, the two emitters decided that the large group (Group II) would go to Michael Flepp and the smaller group (Group I) to Alfons Derungs. Crystal group I was given the name "Sun of Péz Regina", crystal group II was called "Star of the Four Winds".

Crystal Group I weighs 950 kg and includes tips all around that look in all directions. In some cases, there are crystals that have peaks at both ends and a second generation of crystals grew at certain tips.

After the crystals were exhibited at the most important mineral exchanges throughout Europe - one was even at the World Exhibition in Japan - the "Sun of Péz Regina" returned to Lumbrein in 2009 thanks to the great commitment of the Pro Lumerins. After an initial temporary arrangement, it is now a permanent exhibition in the entrance area of the Casa d'Angel cultural centre.

The energetic mutations indicate that the crystal lacks the "ground", the rooting. Nevertheless, the crystal shines strongly at the current exhibition location. Rock crystals have strong cleansing and healing energies.
