Lepidolite
aka Lavenderine, Gem Lepidolite, Lepidolite Mica
Lepidolite is an uncommon mica that only in the past decade has become available on the mineral market in large quantities (recently, however, its availability once again has become limited). This gemstone is a by-product of the mining of lithium and owes its color to lithium's proximity. The name lepidolite is from the Greek word lepidos, meaning scale, because lepidolite normally appears scaly. Its color is violet to pale pink or white and, rarely, gray or yellow. It often contains black markings.
This gemstone is purported to have a calming effect and relieve muscle pain by relaxing the nerves. Lepidolite also connects the heart and crown to bring spiritual understanding of pain and suffering. It is said to help people reorganize their old ways of thinking and acting so they can meet the challenge of change. Lepidolite is found in Zimbabwe, Sweden, Argentina, Canada (Quebec), Madagascar, Russia, California and the U.S.A. (Maine)
