Massive of Piedra Sol or Oligoclase of dim orange color.

The Sun Stone has an orange glow that is due to inclusions of hematite or goethite .

It usually forms in granitic pegmatites, in granite and in felsic igneous rocks. Also in metamorphic rocks, forming in schists and gneiss. Normally found in massive habit.

The mineral includes a label with the name and origin and is attached to a cardboard box. 4 cm square.

*The price is per unit (a single cardboard box of the four shown in the photo)

    Since the minerals are natural, you will receive a piece similar to the one in the photograph. The minerals come in cardboard boxes and are glued to a porex base with hot silicone; these can be removed using ethyl alcohol without damaging the mineral. The size is approximate.
