Originally found in Labrador, Canada, Labradorite is a feldspar mineral with the chemical formula (Na,Ca)₁₋₂Si₃₋₂O₈. It is typically dark grey to black with sections of iridescent "flashes" of color, known as labradorescence. The mineral contains crystal twinning in its structure, creating many sheet-like layers called lamellae. Light interference with these lamellae produces Labradorite's famously colorful appearance.
