Labradorite
Labradorite is a feldspar mineral known for its striking play of colours, also known as labradorescence. Depending on the incidence of light, colours such as blue, green, gold and purple can be visible. This optical property makes labradorite particularly popular as an ornamental stone.
Major deposits include Canada, Madagascar, Finland and Russia. The mineral belongs to the plagioclase, with the chemical formula (Ca,Na)(Al,Si)₄O₈. Its hardness is between 6 and 6.5 on the Mohs scale.
A well-known variant is spectrolite, a type of labradorite from Finland with a particularly intense play of colours.
