Andesine occurs in various colors, from red and honey-red to orange, yellow, champagne, and green. The semi-precious gemstone often shows greenish hints and a faint metallic shiller (or labradorescence). Some are even color-changing, displaying different hues under different types of lighting.
All plagioclase feldspars are composed of albite (sodium aluminum silicate) and anorthite (calcium aluminum silicate) in varying compositions. Other plagioclase minerals include bytownite, moonstone, oligoclase, and spectrolite, among others.
Andesine has a ratio of 30 to 50 percent anorthite to 50 to 70 percent albite, so some mineralogists classify it as an albite variety.
In terms of habits, andesine rarely forms as crystals; when it does, they’re usually small. Andesine crystals often display Albite, Pericline, and Carlsbad twinning. Usually, andesine is found in granular or massive habits.
Here’s an overview of andesine’s mineral traits:
Chemical formula: (Na,Ca)[Al(Si,Al)Si2O8]
Mohs hardness: 6 to 6.5
Color: White, gray, green, yellow, red, orange, pink, champagne, golden
Crystal structure: Triclinic
Luster: Sub-vitreous or pearly
Transparency: Transparent to opaque
Refractive index: 1.56 to 1.57; Increases with higher calcium content
Density: 2.66 to 2.68; Increases with higher calcium content
Cleavage: Perfect on {001}, good/distinct on {010}
Fracture: Subconchoidal or irregular/uneven
Streak: White
Luminescence: Fluorescence (weak); Red, blue, pink, yellow, or yellowish-brown in SW-UV, violet in MW-UV, and yellowish-white, orange, or orange-red in LW-UV
Birefringence: 0.009
Pleochroism: None
Dispersion: Weak to none
Optical effects: Sometimes color-changing

Waarom overbieden gebruikers zichzelf?
Wanneer een bod wordt geplaatst, is dit het maximale bedrag dat een persoon bereid is te bieden voor het product. Ons systeem zal dan automatisch bieden namens de bieder, waarbij het bod stapsgewijs wordt verhoogd tot het maximum om hun positie als hoogste bieder te behouden.
Wanneer er een pictogram is dat 'Automatisch bod' aangeeft, betekent dit dat ons systeem actief biedingen plaatst voor de bieder op basis van hun maximale bod. Dit kan lijken alsof bieders zichzelf overbieden, maar het is gewoon een resultaat van het systeem dat het bod bijwerkt om de maximale limiet van de bieder weer te geven.
