Labradorite is a type of feldspar mineral that is known for its beautiful iridescent colours, which are caused by the diffraction of light as it passes through the mineral’s layered structure. This gemstone is found in a variety of colours, including blue, green, yellow, and orange, but is most commonly known for its blue-gray hue. It is named after the Labrador Peninsula in Canada, where it was first discovered in 1770. As a plagioclase feldspar, it is composed of a series of parallel, interlocking crystal structures. It forms in igneous rocks, which are created by the cooling and solidification of molten magma or lava. Labradorite can also be found in metamorphic rocks, which are created when existing rocks are subjected to high temperatures and pressures, causing them to transform into a new type of rock.
