Datolite is a signature mineral of the Keweenaw Peninsula and Copper Country of Upper Michigan. It is found in old mine piles by keen-eyed rock hunters. Found as a nodule, the outside appearance is usually gray or reddish, but gives few clues to the inside appearance which may be white, pink, red, yellow, orange, blue, or green, and may have copper inclusions. Some mines, such as the Mesnard, Quincy, Franklin, Centennial, Ojibway, have distinctive characteristic colors. Datolite takes a nice shine and makes interesting jewelry distinctive to Michigan's Copper Country. Our pendants are elegantly wire wrapped with top-quality 14/20 yellow gold, pink gold, and tarnish-resistant argentium silver wires.
