The Mineral & Gemstone Lodolite
Lodolite is a term used for a verity of quartz with
mineral inclusions, from Minas Gerais, Brazil. In
(Greek) Lodolite means mud stone or stone from
the mud. Were not too sure this term applies, all
that well to Lodolite.
Because Lodolite has the appearance of an
underwater coral reef. The mineral inclusions
are very attractive and differ from stone to
stone. The colors of the inclusions can range
from green, pink, yellow, brown, white, red and
multi colors. We feel that most of these colors
and mixes of colors. Come from three main types
of minerals, Chlorite, Iron, and calcite.
Quartz includes a variety of stones and colorless, or crystal quartz is
the most common.
Brazil is a major supplier of crystal quartz. Especially when it comes
to verities with mineral inclusions. Quartz is found abundantly
throughout the world, including in the United States. The word "crystal"
comes from the Greek word for "ice" and was believed to be eternally frozen.
The single quartz crystal is a six-sided prism, however this is not always
how it is formed. Sometimes it is found in veins, seams, or pockets of
rock.
