The main component of lapis lazuli is the mineral lazurite, which gives it its distinctive blue color. Additionally, lapis lazuli generally contains calcite, which appears as white-grey veining, as well as pyrite, which appears as metallic gold flakes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eChemical Composition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e: (Na,Ca)8(AlSiO4)6(S,SO4,Cl)1-2\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGrade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lapidary Grade\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAppearance\u003c\/strong\u003e: Opaque\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eInclusions\u003c\/strong\u003e: Technically the grey calcite in the lapis is the inclusion, as the blue is the favourable area. as for cracks, there are some, and the calcite can be soft when cutting.
