Lapis Lazuli Tower Large

8.5cm – 9.5cm Tall

Lapis lazuli forms near igneous interferances where limestone or marble has been altered by contact metamorphism or hydrothermal metamorphism. In these rocks, lazurite replaces portions of the host rock and often develops within certain bands or layers which can include other minerals such as pyrite and white calcite. Lapis Lazuli is mostly found in Afghanistan but can also be found in Chile, Russia, Canada, Argentina, Pakistan, and the US. Within the US, these stones can be found in Colorado, California, and Arizona.
