   You may find the terms ammolite and ammonite sometimes used interchangeably. However, ammonite, strictly speaking, refers to the fossil shells of ammonites, whether gem-quality or not.

   High-grade ammolites will have either a very strong, bright, single color or a range of bright colors. These gems can show any color of the rainbow. (Sometimes, they seem to show more than that!) Low-grade gemstones will show less vibrant colors in a more limited range. Generally, red and green are more common than blue or purple. Certain hues, lik...

   Iridescence

   Iridescence is the property that creates the incredible colors across the surface of ammolites. The surface of gem-quality fossil shells is composed of closely-packed, tabular crystals of aragonite, with their c-axis oriented vertical to the shell surface. They form thin lamellae (plates or scales). The thickness of the aragonite lamellae is of the same scale as the wavelengthsof the spectral colors that make up white light. Thus, when white light enters the regularly spaced, thin layers of a...

   Chromatic Shift

   The color of ammolite depends on the angle of light and the viewer's perspective. Sometimes, a chromatic shift occurs. This can be subtle or spectacularly dramatic. In a dichromatic shift, red will shift to green, green will shift to blue, etc. Some gem material will have shift restricted to hues within the same primary color group. This shift is called monochromatic. However, the best material has spectrochromatic shift. The color will shift through the entire spectrum depending on the light...

   Rotational Range

   Some material won't show strong, vibrant colors through 360° of rotation. When these stones are rotated, the brightness decreases and darkens to black. This is due to organic inclusions in the aragonite blocking light wave diffraction. A high-grade gemstone must show a brilliant color through 360° of rotation.
