$145.00 CAD
Unit price per1 low in stock
Estimated delivery between 29 December and 03 January.
Lepidolite is a lilac-gray or rose-colored member of the mica group of minerals. Because lepidolite is a lithium-bearing mica, it is often wrongly assumed that lithium is what causes the pink hues that are so characteristic of this mineral. Instead, it is trace amounts of manganese that cause the pink, purple, and red colors. The most notable and certainly the most studied of these deposits is the Brown Derby #1 Pegmatite, located in the Ohio City/Quartz Creek District, approximately 18 miles northeast of Gunnison in the high mountains of Central Colorado.
This top specimen is in very good condition. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.
