Presenting a mesmerizing, collector-grade specimen of Lapis Lazuli rock, weighing a precise 32 Grams (equivalent to 160 Carats). This piece is sourced from the famous Lapis mining region in Badakhshan, Afghanistan, with the specific "Mine 4" detail emphasizing its exact provenance within the region.
This Lapis Lazuli is a beautiful blend of rich, deep royal blue Lazurite, scattered flakes of metallic Pyrite (Fool's Gold), and veins of white Calcite.
The Fluorescent Feature:
This specimen is highly sought after because the Calcite components embedded within the Lapis matrix are UV Reactive. When viewed under a longwave UV light (blacklight, 365nm), these white areas will glow a vibrant yellow or orange, transforming the stone into a dramatic display piece.
This exceptional piece measures a precise 39 x 35 x 22 mm.
