Description

Larimar is a form of blue Pectolite, a sodium calcium silicate mineral with a hardness of 4.5 to 5. It occurs as aggregates of needle-like crystals, grown together in a solid mass, characterized by dramatic patterns of blue, blue-green and white. It forms in cavities within basaltic lava. Some Larimar also contains vivid red-brown Hematite inclusions. Larimar comes only from the island of Hispaniola, in the Caribbean Sea.
