Aegirine - Specimen

Locality: Morocco

Description: Aegirine, also known as Acmite, which is a sodium iron silicate mineral commonly formed in the alkali-rich volcanic rock. Aegirine is black to greenish or brownish black looking similar to tourmaline but has a slightly rougher appearance. The individual crystals are generally opaque to translucent. The crystal habit includes long prismatic shards which generally form in clusters. In crystal lore, aegirine is traditionally regarded as a protective stone associated with confidence, self-love and focus on personal goals.
Some of our pieces reside on their host rock which greatly adds to its appearance and weight. Each piece is extremely fragile, but this contributes greatly to their beauty and uniqueness.
