Photo: Lazulite. Lazulite is a magnesium iron aluminium phosphate hydroxide mineral, found in metamorphic rocks and border zones of complex granitic pegmatites and alluvial deposits. Lazulite is a member of the Lazulite Scorzalite series and is relatively rare in the massive form. Lazulite crystals are usually dull, so fine azure blue vitreous specimens are highly collectable. Lazulite is an Arabic word meaning 'heaven'.
Azurite is reactive to acids and lazurite forms infrequent and different crystals than lazulite. Lazulite is in a solid solution series with the mineral scorzalite. A solid solution series is a set of two or more minerals that have a couple of elements that substitute freely for each other. The lazulite-scorzalite series ranges from the magnesium rich lazulite to the iron rich scorzalite.
