Infinite
The Swirling Serpent of Renewal
Also known as: Infinite Stone, Healer's Stone
About the stone
Infinite, also called Infinite stone, Infinite serpentine, or the “Healer’s Stone,” is a trade name for gray-green serpentine-rich material, often described as containing pale chrysotile, itself a serpentine-group mineral. Its commercial history centers on South Africa, although similar material is marketed from India; no reliably documented discovery date is established, and it is not a separate mineral species. Its lore is modern rather than ancient: crystal practitioners associate it with grounding, emotional renewal, protection, and “energy cleansing.” Because chrysotile is asbestos, avoid cutting, sanding, or drilling potentially chrysotile-bearing pieces, and do not use them to prepare drinking-water elixirs.
Mineral data
- Chemical composition: Infinite is a rock rather than a single mineral, made mostly of green serpentine, a magnesium silicate, with white veins of chrysotile, a fibrous serpentine that is an asbestos mineral.

Care and handling
Warning: the white veins in Infinite are chrysotile, an asbestos mineral. Polished, intact stones are generally considered low risk, but never grind, saw, sand, drill or break the stone, and avoid scratching it, because the fine fibres are hazardous if breathed in. Wash your hands after handling rough or damaged pieces. Do not use it in water, elixirs or near the mouth, and keep it away from children and pets. It is soft, so protect it from knocks and acids.
Individual experiences with Infinite vary, and its effects are personal. Approach it with respect and caution, use it mindfully as a polished piece for calm and renewal, and trust your own intuition.
