    *** Spodumene Spodumene is a pyroxene mineral that is found, almost exclusively, in granite pegmatites. It has a chemical composition of LiAlSi2O6 but small amounts of sodium sometimes substitute for lithium. Spodumene is typically found in lithium-rich pegmatites in association with other lithium minerals such as lepidolite, eucryptite and petalite. Spodumene often occurs in extremely large crystals.

    Spodumene
    Spodumene is a pyroxene mineral that is found, almost exclusively, in granite pegmatites. It has a chemical composition of LiAlSi2O6 but small amounts of sodium sometimes substitute for lithium. Spodumene is typically found in lithium-rich pegmatites in association with other lithium minerals such as lepidolite, eucryptite and petalite.
    Spodumene often occurs in extremely large crystals.
    Physical Properties of Spodumene
    Chemical Classification
    silicate
    Color
    White, gray, yellow, green, blue, lilac, pink, brown. Sometimes pleochroic
    Streak
    White, colorless.
    Luster
    Vitreous, pearly.
    Diaphaneity
    transparent to translucent
    Cleavage
    perfect in two directions with parting
    Mohs Hardness
    6.5 to 7
    Specific Gravity
    3.1 to 3.3
    Diagnostic Properties
    Prismatic crystals with strong striations parallel to their principal axis. Perfect cleavage.
    Chemical Composition
    LiAl(SiO3)2
    Crystal System
    monoclinic (low temperature) tetragonal (high temperature)
    Spodumene sometimes occurs in transparent crystals in pastel shades of pink, green and yellow. These have been cut into gemstones that are prized by collectors. However, their use in jewelry is limited to pieces that will be subject to limited abuse because of spodumene’s perfect cleavage.
    Translucent to transparent spodumene with an attractive pink, yellow or green color is sometimes faceted, cut en cabochon or used to make tumbled stones. Its perfect cleavage limits its use to jewelry that will not be subject to rough wear or handling. Spodumene is primarily a “collector’s gemstone.”
    Source localities include Afghanistan, Australia, Brazil, Madagascar, Pakistan, Canada and USA.
    Kunzite
    Pink to lilac specimens of gem-quality spodumene are highly prized and known as “kunzite”. The color of these specimens is attributed to the presence of manganese as a chromophore. Kunzite is the most commonly encountered spodumene gem.
    Hiddenite
    Emerald green spodumene is known as “Hiddenite.” Its vivid green color is very similar to emerald and is attributed to the presence of chromium as a chromophore. It is the rarest gem variety of spodumene.
    Triphane
    Yellow and clear specimens of spodumene are known as “Triphane”. They have also been cut into gems.
