what is lazulite
Photo: Lazulite. Lazulite is a magnesium iron aluminium phosphate hydroxide mineral, found in metamorphic rocks and border zones of complex granitic pegmatites and alluvial deposits. Lazulite is a member of the Lazulite Scorzalite series and is relatively rare in the massive form. Lazulite crystals are usually dull, so fine azure blue vitreous specimens are highly collectable. Lazulite is an Arabic word meaning 'heaven'.
