I’ve been locked inside your heart-shaped geode, for thousands of years…ahem. Rare heart-shaped amethyst geodes were recently discovered in Artigas, by the mining company Uruguay Minerals. This may be an arbitrary shape of a heart that we humans came up with, but turns out nature uses it too:

“After two or three hours, they moved a basalt rock and with the excavator machine, opened a heart-shaped amethyst geode—what a treasure!” explained Marcos Lorenzelli of Uruguay Minerals.

Kudos, Mother Nature and Father Time. We see you.
