| Polylithionite is found
throughout the pegmatite dikes in the nepheline syenites.
Named for the high amount of lithium it contains, tablets
up to 4 inches are often found, usually associated with
steenstrupine, aegirine and analcime.
The plates of polylithionite are a
light greenish color, and fluoresce a brilliant yellow/white
under SW UV light.
Fine examples can be found in combination
with sodalite and analcime resulting in wonderful 3 or
4 color specimens.
