Charoite is a rare hydrated potassium sodium calcium barium strontium silicate hydroxide fluoride mineral. Charoite is formed from an alteration of limestone by an alkali rich Nepheline Syenite intrusion. Charoite occurs only in Siberia. Charoite makes for a stunning ornamental stone, and like no other, and has the appearance of purple marble. |
