Lepidolite is an uncommon and beautiful mica mineral. It occurs in white, grey, yellow, and lilac. The lilac variety is popular as a gemstone. Lepidolite forms in pegmatites (very coarse grained granites). It has a hardness of 2.5-3 on Moh’s hardness scale, so it is very soft. Lepidolite is found in the United States and Brazil.
