I stopped buying from those sources also. Years ago I purchased a large very angry quartz crystal from China. I couldn't stand having the crystal in my house and so gifted it to my sister. She called me when she received it in the mail and asked why I had sent her such an angry crystal. She put the crystal at the base of a vine plant she had growing in her house. The vine wrapped itself around the stone and eventually healed it. My psychic vibes told me that many people suffered mining that stone and others, along with Mother Earth. I was new to crystals then and didn't understand till years later what the impact of mining crystals was for both the Earth and exploited persons.
