moonstone 6 - 6.5

The most common moonstone is of the mineral adularia. Its name is derived from a visual effect caused by light reflecting internally from layer inclusion of different feldspars. Moonstone is found in many places like the European Alps, Brazil, India, Mexico, Myanmar, Madagascar; the USA, specifically Pennsylvania and Virginia; and Tanzania. However, it is Sri Lanka that produces the highest quality moonstones.
