About AmblygoniteHide

Formula:

LiAl(PO₄)F

Colour:

Milk-white, yellow, beige, salmon-pink, pale green, light blue, grey; colourless in transmitted light.

Lustre:

Sub-Vitreous, Resinous, Greasy, Pearly

Hardness:

5½ - 6

Specific Gravity:

3.04 - 3.11

Crystal System:

Triclinic

Member of:

Amblygonite Group

Name:

Named by August Breithaupt in 1817 from the Greek αμβλύς ("amvlys") for "blunt" and γωνία ("gonia") for "angle," referring to the fact that its cleavage angle slightly differs from 90°, distinguishing it from scapolite for which it was originally mistaken.

Type Locality:

ⓘ Chursdorf, Penig, Mittelsachsen, Saxony, Germany

Isostructural with:

Montebrasite, Natromontebrasite, Tavorite

Amblygonite-Montebrasite Series. Fluorine analogue of Montebrasite.

Occurs chiefly in granite pegmatites of the lithium- and phosphate-rich type. Crystals may be enormous in size.
NOTE: Most "amblygonite" from granite pegmatites, especially from crystal pockets, are in fact montebrasite.
