Ussingite, Sodalite (Size: 12.0 × 11.0 × 7.8 cm)
- Locality: Ilimaussaq complex, Narsaq, Kitaa Province (West Greenland), Greenland
- Ussingite is a rare silicate found in syenite pegmatites, also sodalite-bearing xenoliths. Greenland is the Type Locality for this species. The large specimen features pods and stringers of translucent, pretty lavender ussingite surrounded by off-white sodalite and matrix. The sodalite fluoresces bright yellow and the ussingite a moderate green, which is hard to see in the photos. Ex. Jonathon Allred Fluorescent Collection.
