| Macro image of the rough and coarse texture of the beautiful piece of Glaucophane. Taken near Canon City Colorado. Liked how the light played across the blues and violets of this piece of rock. The silica and quartz are also visible. Glaucophane is the magnesium rich member and ferroglaucophane is the iron rich member. Ferroglaucophane is similar to glaucophane but is denser, generally darker in color with a diminished pearly luster. Glaucophane is formed typically in a highly metamorphic zone known by the geologic term blueschist facies. |
