Sonora Sunrise, also known as Sonora Sunset and Cuprite Chrysocolla, is a hydrous copper oxide mineral containing Brochantite (with occasional Chrysocolla) and red Cuprite (Chalcotrichite, the orange variety of Cuprite may also be found in small amounts). A black banding of Tenorite (a Copper oxide) divides the two minerals, with the rock matrix being Limestone. Sonora Sunrise was recently discovered in 2006 at the Milpillas Copper Mine. This mine is about 50 miles south of the United States-Mexico border, near the town of Santa Cruz, Sonora, Mexico. Its name was derived from the similarly gorgeous colorful sunrises the Mexican state is widely known for.
Sonora Sunrise is quite an odd stone, especially when referring to it’s energies. Oddly enough, this copper oxide mineral helps one communicate love, change, manifestation, and inner vitality all at once. Yes, a crazy and potent stone! It's almost fitting that this mineral has only been on the market for around a decade

*  Heals and Balances Chakra
Cuprite is allied with kundalini or the life-force energy in addition to healing of the solar plexus chakra, the base (root) chakra, and balancing the heart and base chakras.
Being a grounding stone, Cuprite is really amazing in curing the negativities of the root chakra. The base chakra connects the energy of the body with the energies of the earth, and hence the grounding attribute of Cuprite adds more positivity to this process. By balancing the base chakra, Cuprite maintains the energy level, stamina, enthusiasm, and vigour of the body.
The other chakra that is healed by Cuprite is the solar plexus chakra. The solar plexus chakra is the centre of knowledge, personal strength and learning.  A strong solar plexus chakra helps the person in the development of the will power and the strength that is very useful in surviving in the world. When the Solar Plexus Chakra is in balance, it boosts a sense of worth, mutual respect, serenity and initiative. The person is always sociable, ecstatic and confident. The dare and the confidence that is inculcated by a healthy plexus chakra are related to the person, even timid, transpiring into a leader, adventurer, and a charismatic personality.
