Ammolite from Bearpaw Formation, Alberta, Canada

48.48$

Piece of ammolite from Bearpaw Formation, Alberta, Canada with bright, colourful iridescence. Ammolite is a rare, iridescent gemstone formed from the fossilized shells of extinct marine mollusks known as ammonites, which lived around 70 million years ago. It is found exclusively in the Bearpaw Formation in southern Alberta, Canada, making it one of the rarest gemstones in the world. The gemstone is composed primarily of aragonite, the same mineral found in nacre, with a microstructure inherited from the ammonite shell. This unique structure causes light to refract and diffract, producing a vibrant, opal-like play of colors across the rainbow spectrum.
