MOONSTONE

MOONSTONE, or adularia, is a potassium feldspar of the orthoclase species. It is composed of two feldspar minerals, orthoclase and albite. Moonstone is prized as a gemstone because of its silvery or blue shimmer called adularescence, which is due to diffraction of light as it hits thin, alternating layers of orthoclase and albite within the gem.
