Kyanite is a blue, fibrous metamorphic mineral that forms in distinctive thin blades. This mineral only forms under high pressure within the Earth's crust, which can tell you A LOT about the tectonic history of an area. Because kyanite crystallizes as thin blades, it also crushes up into progressively smaller, elongate crystals during the crushing process.

Our medium material is considered to be sand sized (very coarse sand to fine sand), with the width of the kyanite blades, ranging between 2 millimeters to 0.25 millimeters. The average length of the kyanite blades range between 0.1 centimeters to 1 centimeter. Please see the corresponding sediment size chart.

These are absolutely perfect for the inlays I'm working on! There is plenty to work with, and the prices are very reasonable. I had to wait an extra week for them due to the slow post office, but they were shipped promptly and packed well. Definitely worth the wait and I will be ordering again! Thank you!
