10 raw pieces (about an inch each) of Sunstone from Oregon USA and a silk pouch for safe keeping. It is also known as heliolite, a transparent feldspar with colors ranging from clear, yellow, soft pink, through the rays of red. The color depends on the amount of copper in each stone. These Sunstones formed in lava over thirteen million years ago. It is thought a volcano erupted, pouring out massive amounts of lava. The lava flow was subsequently covered by a vast lake and remained underwater for thousands of years. As the lake gradually dried up, Sunstones began to come to light.
