LABRADORITE
Labradorite is a fairly abundant greyish mineral that has brilliant flashes of green blue or red colour after it is polished called labradorescence. It is usually cut with a flat surface in order to highlight the flashes of colour. The crystals are transparent to translucent. Labradorite was originally found along the coast of Labrador around 1805. It is also found in Newfoundland, other parts of Canada, the Ukraine, the Ural Mountains, and the USA.
Hardness 5 to 6.
