SCAPOLITES[GEM]

Listing description

The scapolites (Gr. asairos, rod, stone) are a group of rock-forming silicate minerals composed of aluminium, calcium, and sodiumsilicate with chlorine, carbonate and sulfate. 
 Detailed description
 The two endmembers are meionite (Ca4Al6Si6O24CO3) and marialite(Na4Al3Si9O24Cl). Silvialite (Ca,Na)4Al6Si6O24(SO4,CO3) is also a recognized member of the group.

AGATE[GEM]

Image
Listing description Agate (pronounced /ˈæ ɡə t/ ) is a microcrystalline variety of quartz ( silica ), chiefly chalcedony , characterised by its fineness of grain and brightness of color. Although agates may be found in various kinds of rock, they are classically associated with volcanic rocks but can be common in certain metamorphic rocks . [1] Detailed description Etymology and history The stone was given its name by Theophrastus , a Greek philosopher and naturalist, who discovered the stone along the shore line of the river Achates ( Greek : Ἀχάτης ) sometime between the 4th and 3rd centuries BC. [2] Colorful agates and other chalcedonies were obtained over 3,000 years ago from the Achates River, now called Dirillo , in Sicily . [3] Ancient use Agate is one of the most common materials used in the art of hardstone carving , and has been recovered at a number of ancient sites, indicating its widespread use in the ancient world; for example, archaeological recovery a...

ALEXANDRITE

Image
The alexandrite variety displays a color change ( alexandrite effect ) dependent upon the nature of ambient lighting. This color shift is independent of any change of hue with viewing direction through the crystal that would arise from pleochroism . Both these different properties are frequently referred to as "color change", however. DETAILED DESCRIPTION The alexandrite variety displays a color change ( alexandrite effect ) dependent upon the nature of ambient lighting. This color shift is independent of any change of hue with viewing direction through the crystal that would arise from pleochroism . Both these different properties are frequently referred to as "color change", however. Alexandrite results from small scale replacement of aluminium by chromium ions in the crystal structure, which causes intense absorption of light over a narrow range of wavelengths in the yellow region of the spectrum. Alexandrite from the Ural Mountains in Russia is gree...

TOURMALINE(RUBELITA)GEM

Image
Listing description : MINERALOGY:  The  pink tourmaline , also known as rubelita originates primarily in plutonitas acids, specifically  pegmatite , where forms large  crystals . Through the action of gases containing  boron, from the magma of the host rock, tourmaline it can also arise as inclusion neumatolítica  ( generated depth of the crust (Plutonism) by intrusion of magma, which causes alteration in petrographic composition of the invaded rocks ) then the crystals are included heavily on rock, the  pink tourmaline  consists of different mineral elements, but always has the same structure, the metals are always included in tourmalines and are causing varieties this mineral colors,  the pink tourmaline carries traces of manganese  that is what gives her cute pink. Detailed Description: MYTHOLOGY:  It was found in the Minas Gerais (Brazil)  crystal pink tourmaline (rubellite) of 109 cm.  pink tour...
