Colombianite – volcanic glass from South America
Colombianite is a type of volcanic glass, similar to obsidian, which formed through the rapid cooling of molten lava on the Earth's surface. Its unique chemical composition and structure give it distinctive appearance and properties. Colombianite is known for its color when held to light, displaying gray-brown hues due to the presence of various minerals formed during its creation.
Characteristics
Its pitted surface was caused by the action of soil acids, similar to that of moldavites. Colombianite is highly sought after for its beauty and exotic origin, making it a valuable material for jewelry and collectors. Owning a piece of Colombianite brings a unique fragment of nature to your collection, admired for its appearance and origin.
