Lepidolite

Q: What is Lepidolite made of?

Lepidolite has the chemical formula K(Li,Al)₃(Al,Si,Rb)₄O₁₀(F,OH)₂, crystallises in the monoclinic (pseudohexagonal) system and measures 2.5 – 4 (Mohs) on the Mohs scale. Lepidolite is a lithium-rich mica mineral and an important source of lithium metal. Its perfect basal cleavage and layered structure give it a silvery, flaky appearance. The pink to lilac color comes from trace manganese substituting for lithium.
