About LepidoliteHide

Lustre:
Sub-Vitreous, Resinous, Greasy, Pearly
Name:
Named in 1792 by Martin Klaproth from the Greek words lepidos for "scale" and lithos for "stone".
A field name for the group of Li-rich micas in, or close to, the so-called Polylithionite-Trilithionite series, also fluorluanshiweiite and luanshiweiite.

The original lepidolite came from Rožná pegmatite, Žďár nad Sázavou, Vysočina Region, Moravia (Mähren; Maehren), Czech Republic.

The name is sometimes incorrectly applied to lithian muscovite. The pink to purple colour typical of lithian muscovite and lepidolite is usually attributed to divalent manganese (Evans and Raftery, 1982).

Varieties of LepidoliteHide

Cs-rich LepidoliteA variety of Lepidolite enriched in Caesium.
Purple JadeA dense mass of fine grained lepidolite, which is used for carving and as an ornamental stone. It usually contains minor quartz, feldspar, spodumene and occasionally pollucite as impurities. Technically, this material is a rock and not a mineral.
Rb-rich LepidoliteA variety of Lepidolite enriched in Rubidium.
