Afghanite typically forms as blue to blue-green crystals, but can also occur in white, colorless, or yellowish varieties. Additionally, Afghanite often contains inclusions of white calcite, leading to its characteristic mottled or streaked blue-white appearance. It was first discovered in 1968 in Afghanistan, hence its name. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eAfghanite is also found in other locations around the world, including Italy, Russia, and Canada, but the most prized specimens still come from Afghanistan.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChemical Composition\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eNa22Ca10(Si24Al24)O96(SO4)6Cl6\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eApproximate Size of 1 Piece\u003c\/b\u003e: 2.5cm x 2.5cm x 2.5cm\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eApproximate Weight of 1 Piece\u003c\/b\u003e: 35g\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eQuantity\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e1pc\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eWe do our best to buy quality products- although not every rock is the same.
