MINERALOGY: Lapis Lazuli is a metamorphic rock containing lazurite, which gives it its distinctive blue color. It may also contain Calcite, Pyrite and minor amounts of other minerals. The name means "blue rock" and is always a brilliant blue with violet or greenish tints. The rich blue colour is due to the lazurite that is an essential component of this mineral. Small crystals of pyrite are always present in lapis lazuli and their brassy yellow colour is both attractive and diagnostic in distinguishing lapis lazuli from its blue cousin - Sodalite
