Sodalite Rough
Sodalite is a beautiful, dark blue material often used as a simulant for lapis. However, it's a wonderful stone in its own right. This material cuts easily and makes beautiful cabs or spheres.

We have two varieties of sodalite. The silicated material from Namibia has little or no cleavage problems and takes an even polish. The material from Brazil is softer, has more definite cleavage and may have some undercutting. Polishes with tin or aluminum oxide, or diamond. Approximate Mohs hardness 6 to 7.
