missionaries. Labradorite is a plagioclase feldspar which shows adularescence

in the layers of rock. When viewed at certain angles, labradorite exhibits such
captivating color that has led to Inuit legends stating that the Northern
Lights shone down on the shores of Labrador and were captured inside these
