Larimar is also known as the Dolphin Stone™ or the Atlantis stone. Larimar, the Gemstone of the Caribbean, is very rare, the only known minesite is the Dominican Republic.
Larimar, or Blue Pectolite, is only found in the Dominican Republic. This mineral is a mixture of beautiful Caribbean copper Blue-Green colors. Occasionally Hematite Dendrites, Calcite and Natrolite inclusions occur. This sought after stone is a relatively new discovery. The first Larimar specimens were found in the latter half of the 20th century.
