Sodalite<\/h3>\n

Sodalite<\/a>\u00a0is a blue mineral from the feldspar replacement group that often contains white veins or flecks of calcite. It is valued for its deep colour and glassy luster. Sodalite is mainly found in igneous rocks such as syenite and nephelineite.<\/p>\n

Major deposits include Canada, Brazil, Namibia and Russia. Its chemical formula is Na\u2088(Al\u2086Si\u2086O\u2082\u2084)Cl\u2082. Its hardness is around 5.5 to 6 on the Mohs scale.<\/p>\n

A well-known variant is hackmanite, a rare form of sodalite that can exhibit fluorescence or tenebrescence (discolouration under UV light).<\/p>\n

Sodaliet Sodaliet\u00a0is een blauw mineraal uit de groep van de veldspaatvervangers dat vaak witte aders of vlekken van calciet bevat. Het wordt gewaardeerd om zijn diepe kleur en glasachtige glans. Sodaliet komt voornamelijk voor in stollingsgesteenten zoals syeniet en nefelieniet. Belangrijke vindplaatsen zijn onder andere Canada, Brazili\u00eb, Namibi\u00eb en Rusland. De chemische formule is Na\u2088(Al\u2086Si\u2086O\u2082\u2084)Cl\u2082.
