Brazilianite

Brazilianite is a relatively rare sodium aluminium phosphate mineral, prized for its attractive yellow-green to golden-yellow coloration and transparent, vitreous lustre. It typically forms short prismatic to elongated crystals, often exhibiting distinctive spearhead-shaped terminations. First discovered in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, in the 1940s, its type locality is the Córrego Frio mine in Linópolis. Brazilianite is commonly found in granitic pegmatites, frequently associated with muscovite, albite, and other phosphate minerals. Its well-defined crystal forms and vibrant coloration make it a sought-after species among mineral collectors. Explore our selection of genuine brazilianite specimens for your collection.
