Collection: Lapis Lazuli
Lapis Lazuli is actually classified as metamorphic rock rather than a single mineral. Its intense blue colour is due to the presence of the mineral lazurite, it also usually contains Calcite and Pyrite with small amounts of several other minerals. It often fluoresces under UV due to the calcite content. Lapis Lazuli is most commonly mined in Afghanistan, Russia and Chile and can also be found in parts of Europe, Africa, Asia and North America.
