Indigo Gabbro Tumbles

Indigo gabbro is a relatively new crystal used in polishing and carving and has only surfaced in the last few years. It has an amazing array of colors from light indigo purple to black.

Gabbro refers to a large group of dark, coarse-grained, intrusive mafic igneous rocks chemically equivalent to basalt. The rocks are plutonic, formed when molten magma is trapped beneath the Earth's surface and cools into a crystalline mass.

The vast majority of the Earth's surface is underlain by gabbro within the oceanic crust, produced by basalt magmatism at mid-ocean ridges.

Gabbro is a combination of multiple minerals containing Feldspar, Chlorite, Serpentine, Muscovite, Pyroxene, Hercynite, and Magnetite in a charcoal-colored matrix; it may also contain small amounts of Olivine, Chrome Garnet, Actinolite, and Biotite.

Indigo Gabbro is said to be a great crystal for spiritual work & intuition. A grounding stone with the ability to connect to a higher consciousness.
