58mm 163ct Astrophyllite bronze gold cabochon freeform natural AAA very rare from Russia RARE PIECE
Astrophyllite is a very rare, brown to golden-yellow hydrous potassium iron titanium silicate mineral. Astrophyllite typically forms as bladed, radiating stellate aggregates. The name Astrophyllite is from Greek words astron meaning "star" and phyllon meaning "leaf". Owing to its limited availability and high cost, astrophyllite is seldom seen in an ornamental capacity. It is sometimes used in jewellery where it is fashioned into cabochons. Found in cavities and fissures in unusual felsic igneous rocks, astrophyllite is associated with feldspar, mica, titanite, zircon,nepheline, and aegirine. Common impurities include magnesium, aluminium, calcium, zirconium, niobium, and tantalum. It was first discovered in 1854 at its type locality; Laven Island, Norway. Astrophyllite is found in a few scarce, remote localities:
Mont-Saint-hilaire, Quebec, Canada; PikesPeak, Colorado, USA;Narsarsuk and Kangerdluarsuk, Greenland; Brevig, Norway; and the Kola Peninsula, Russia.
