Natural Neon Amazonite with Metal Base — Raw

Neon Amazonite is a high chromatic saturation variety of Amazonite, a potassium feldspar from the microcline group with chemical formula KAlSi₃O₈. Its formation occurs in the same environments as conventional Amazonite — granite pegmatites and hydrothermal veins — but under specific geochemical conditions that favor a higher concentration of lead (Pb) and water in the structural defects of the crystalline network. The intense and characteristically vibrant blue-green color results from this high concentration of lead replacing potassium in the mineral structure. The greater the concentration of lead and the regularity of structural defects, the more saturated and intense the resulting tone, visibly differentiating it from common Amazonite. Hardness: 6 to 6.5 on the Mohs scale. Density: 2.56 to 2.58 g/cm³. Crystalline system: triclinic. The product is sold with a metal base included, ready for display.
