| The Badger Flats area is also well known for clinozoisite, garnet, hematite, scheelite, vesuvianite, wollastonite, and zoisite. |
|
| Some say that tanzanite, the blue variety of zoisite, is what set off the gem rush in East Africa, although Madagascar was producing other fine gems at the time. |
|
| Small amounts of minerals such as kyanite, zoisite, and hornblende may be present. |
|
| Minerals observed in eclogite-facies calcareous rocks include magnesite, dolomite, zoisite or epidote, and omphacite. |
|
| Tanzanite is a gemstone that's a variety of blue or purple colors of the mineral zoisite. |
|
| The mineral readily weathers to other aluminous minerals e.g., margarite, zoisite, sillimanite, and kyanite. |
|
| It forms a series with clinozoisite and, together with a group of other minerals including zoisite, the allanites, and piemontite, is a dominant member of the epidote group. |
|
| The titanite grains from Zones 1 and 2 show marginal growth interstitial to newly grown crystals of metamorphic minerals such as plagioclase, biotite and zoisite. |
|
| Accessory minerals are represented by apatite, zoisite, sphene, calcite, fluorite and magnetite. |
|
| All varieties of zoisite have an orthorhombic crystalline structure, which is characterized by three mutually perpendicular axes that are unequal in length. |
|
| Wilson and partners are exploring the possibility of extracting a mineral called zoisite from the mountain, which may, or may not, have a bizarre application. |
|
| The gem that put Tanzania on the world precious stone map was its namesake tanzanite, a blue zoisite found solely near the town of Arusha in northern Tanzania. |
|
| By then officially identified as zoisite by the august Gemological Institute of America, the gem was named tanzanite by Hoving in honour of its country of origin. |
