AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A labradorite sphere with a beautiful golden reflection.
Labradorite is a mineral belonging to the feldspar family, characterized by a strong iridescence caused by the refraction of light on the ripples present in its crystal structure.
Its extraction takes place mainly in certain regions of Madagascar, such as the Antsiranana region and the Tulear region.
From a geological point of view, labradorite forms in igneous rocks, such as basalts, as a result of the cooling and crystallization of magma. In particular, labradorite forms due to the presence of elements such as calcium, aluminum, and silicon in the magma, which combine to form the crystal structure of the mineral.
