Appearance & origins
Sodalite is a deep blue crystal often veined with streaks of white, gray, or black calcite. Its surface has a smooth, polished texture when tumbled, though raw pieces may appear slightly matte and rough. The blue hue can range from a rich, royal blue to a lighter sky blue, often accented by unique patterns resembling abstract art.
Sodalite is commonly found in Canada, Brazil, Russia, Namibia, and the United States, particularly in areas rich in igneous rock formations.
