Eudialyte from Nora Kärr, Sweden – 5.28 kg unique piece
This massive Eudialyte specimen from Nora Kärr, Sweden, displays the characteristic red-pink to purplish coloration typical of this classic alkaline rock locality, set within a dark grey to greenish-black, coarse-grained host rock. The colored Eudialyte zones are irregularly distributed and combine with lighter and darker mineral components to create a strongly contrasting and visually dynamic appearance. The surface is natural and unworked, revealing internal structures and varied textures that emphasize the geological character of this substantial specimen. With a weight of 5.28 kg, this is an impressive large-format unique piece.
Geology & Origin
Norra Kärr is one of the world’s most important alkaline intrusions and is especially famous for its rare Eudialyte-bearing paragenesis. The Eudialyte formed within highly sodium- and zirconium-rich alkaline intrusive rocks during complex magmatic differentiation processes. The locality is of outstanding scientific importance, providing key insights into the formation of rare earth and high-field-strength element mineralization, and has long been regarded as a reference locality for Eudialyte.
