Beryllonite Gemstone - Gemstones TV

Beryllonite derives its name from its chemical composition, primarily composed of beryllium (Be), sodium (Na), and oxygen (O). This rare gemstone was first discovered in the early 19th century, with notable occurrences in various parts of the world, including the United States, Brazil, and Madagascar. However, Beryllonite is primarily found in pegmatite deposits, where it forms alongside other beryllium-containing minerals such as beryl and phenakite.
