About: K2 Jasper/Azurite Granite
K2 Jasper is the most commonly used name for marketing this material, it is definitely not Jasper but the mixture of both granite and azurite, and also known as “K2 Granite” and “raindrop azurite”, it is an extremely interesting rock and lapidary material. If you examine the rock with a magnifying glass, you will see cleavage faces of feldspar minerals and black flakes of biotite. It is a bright white granite that contains sharply contrasting orbs of bright blue azurite. The identity of the blue material and learn that it is “azurite,” they usually have a hard time believing it because white granite and azurite rarely occur together. K2 attracts a lot of attention at gem and mineral shows. The rare combination of azurite in granite starts a lot of discussions, and even the occasional argument. The blue dots have the same cutting and polishing properties as the surrounding white granite. This is because the azurite exists as a stain rather than as discrete mineral grains. K2 granite is named after a mountain in the Karakoram Range near the border between Pakistan and China. K2, also known as “Mount Godwin Austen,” is the second-highest mountain in the world. The azurite granite is found in colluvium near the base of the mountain. It is in a very remote area visited by very few people.
