Ammolite

Ammolite is a unique and rare gemstone that is known for its vibrant colors and iridescent sheen. It's actually a type of fossilized ammonite shell that has been compressed and mineralized over millions of years.

Ammolite is found primarily in the Rocky Mountains of North America, particularly in the province of Alberta, Canada. The stone is composed of the shells of ancient sea creatures called ammonites, which went extinct around 65 million years ago.

One of the most striking features of Ammolite is its iridescent coloring. Depending on the angle of the light, it can display a range of colors, including red, green, blue, yellow, and orange. This makes it a popular stone for use in jewelry, as well as decorative objects such as sculptures and artwork. (Read More)
