Amazonite Mineral Collection
Amazonite is a striking green variety of microcline feldspar, prized for its vibrant color and smooth, glossy appearance. Its hues range from soft mint to a deeper, turquoise green. The mineral gets its color from trace amounts of lead and water, which influence its distinctive shade. Found in granitic and pegmatitic rocks, notable sources of Amazonite include the United States (Colorado), Russia, and Brazil.
