Perfect crystals are rare

a warm and shallow coral sea teeming with Crinoids covered what is now Indiana and Illinois

Opals are structurally composed of tiny spheres of silica

and slight iron content produces a yellow stone

they are two completely different gems

Teardrop Larimar Cabochon 571b09150cdf10c34f5a7044ead02042 Perfect crystals are rareLarimar is a rare variety of pectolite found only in the Caribbean island of the Dominican Republic. Pectolite is an acid silicate hydrate of calcium and sodium, and the rare blue color of Larimar comes from cobalt substituting calcium. Ranging from light green blue to deep blue, it is considered an ornamental and semi precious stone. The first documented discovery of the stone dates to 1916, by Father Miguel Domingo Fuertes Loren.
