ORIGIN : TRIKORFO PEAK, THASOS ISLAND, KAVALA PREFECTURE, MACEDONIA, GREECE

The earliest mining on the island has been dated to around 13,000 BC, when paleolithic miners dug a shaft at the site of the modern-era Tzines iron mine.The Trikorfo area represents a unique mineralogical locality with Mn-rich minerals.

Here is a nice example of 2 silvery blue Kyanite crystals found in Thasos island. The largest crystal weighs 4.80 grams it measures 42 x 7.7 x 5.9mm. Thasos Kyanite is the finest for the variety in Greece. The locality is hardly known to the mineral world and hardly any of this material from this locality is available on the market which makes it very rare (google search). Kyanite has an alternative name also — disthene. Both of these names have a meaning relating to the properties of the mineral. “Kyanos” means blue in Greek and disthene also from Greek means that its hardness varies. It is considerably weaker along the crystal (5 on Mohs scale) and stronger across it (7 on Mohs scale). Will be an interesting addition from an unusual locality to any rock and mineral collection.
