That colouration is common in Labradorite, Its the Rainbow Effect that is rare.... Or that's what I have been told anyhow.... There is a bit of Confusion in the term 'Ladradorite' as the stuff Lefty has found is slightly a different chemical composition to the stuff found at Hograth Range and different again to Harts Range.....

Have a look at the Lattice Sunstone, .. there are only 2 locations in the world where it is found and both are in the Harts Range in the NT... But there is only 1 location on record.... I do know where the second is and I will be there next year on a 3 month Fossicking Adventure.... Cant wait... :Y:

[QUOTE="LONEWOLF, post: 421813, member: 6309"] That colouration is common in Labradorite, Its the Rainbow Effect that is rare.... Or that's what I have been told anyhow.... There is a bit of Confusion in the term 'Ladradorite' as the stuff Lefty has found is slightly a different chemical composition to the stuff found at Hograth Range and different again to Harts Range..... Have a look at the Lattice Sunstone, .. there are only 2 locations in the world where it is found and both are in the Harts Range in the NT... But there is only 1 location on record.... ;) I do know where the second is and I will be there next year on a 3 month Fossicking Adventure....
