Uruguay Sodalite Rough Chunk!

Uruguay Sodalite is known for having much deeper blue than most any other type of Sodalite!     Sodalite is a well renowned blue tectosilicate lapidary material!  It gets its name due to its high sodium content.  It tends to work into great cabochons, and takes a great polish.  It has historically been mistaken for Lapis Lazuli, due to the bright blue contrast both stones can have.    Weight: Approx 5 lbs 3.2 oz Measurements (inches - longest - approx): 6.1 x 4.8 x 4.5 I do my best to represent the stones with photos.  I don't enhance photos, though sometimes brightness and contrast on monitors may differ, and while a photo may look just like the rock on my end, it will sometimes appear brighter or duller on your end.  I run my monitor at default brightness and contrast settings. Rough photos are normally taken wet with water unless otherwise specified.
