Reade Advanced Materials offers:

Spodumene Powder

• Synonyms: Lithium aluminum silicate

• Formula: LiAlSi₂0₆
   

• Description:

A monoclinic member of the pyroxene group. the color is variable, being nearly white in the low iron variety and dark green in iron-rich crystals. When clear, spodumene is considered a gemstone. Three varieties are known: hiddenite (the green variety), triphane (the yellow variety), and kunzite (the lilac-colored variety). It is the most abundant source of lithium
