Lapis Lazuli, casually called by its shortened name Lapis, is the gemstone form of Lazurite that is associated with white Calcite and sparkling Pyrite that has been mined as a gem material for some 9000 years. The name Lazurite is derived from the term “Lazaward”, which means heaven in Arabic, alluding to its blue color.
Lazurite forms a solid solution series with Hauyne, essentially sharing the same chemical formula but with a variation of the sulfide over the sulfate. Lazurite has the sulfide dominating, whereas Hauyne has the sulfate dominating.
