Tradition:

 

The Larimar deposit was discovered in 1974 and exploited only from 1976 by local inhabitants who had noticed a light blue color at the bottom of a river which flowed into the Caribbean Sea. "By going upstream on foot, they discovered the vein located upstream, at the top of a mountain covered with tropical vegetation. Her name comes from the contraction of the first name Larissa (daughter of one of the two discoverers) and "Mar", the Caribbean Sea seen from the mine. "

"The discovery of this deposit had been predicted by the medium Edgar Cayce in his time. He announced the discovery of a blue stone like Caribbean water which would be essential to the energy needs of Man when we find it. "

"The Larimar is used for the manufacture of jewelry: it is an exceptional jewel because of its rarity as much as its color, this stone is very sought after because it represents the essence of air and water or more symbolically thoughts and feelings. "
