Kyanite, Greek for ‘blue’, is known to have an unusual and variable hardness quality. It often has irregular streaks making it difficult to cut. Popular colors include blue, green, and black although Kyanite can also be white, pink, or yellow. It occurs in Burma, Brazil, South Africa, Switzerland, Mexico and the US. The name Turquoise means ‘Turkish stone’ because the trade route that brought it to Europe used to come via Turkey. Some high quality deposits are in the Middle East but there are many around the world, including Argentina, Australia, Brazil, China, Israel, Mexico, Tanzania, New Mexico, and Arizona. Turquoise is used to promote wholeness, communication and spiritual expansion. Quartz is among the most abundant of minerals and makes up a small part of a multitude of gemstones available today.
