Mini Unakite, Green Aventurine and Sodalite Wolf Carvings

Unakite is a metamorphic rock that forms when granite is altered by hydrothermal activity. During metamorphism, plagioclase in the granite is replaced by epidote to produce a rock composed primarily of green epidote, pink orthoclase, and clear to bluish-gray quartz.

Aventurine is a variety of translucent quartz or quartzite with abundant small plate- or flake-shaped inclusions. Light entering the quartz strikes these inclusions and reflects from them. This produces a sparkly appearance known as "aventurescence."

Sodalite is a rare rock-forming mineral best known for its blue to blue-violet colour. It is a member of the feldspathoid mineral group and occurs in igneous rocks that crystallized from sodium-rich magmas.
