Ever wonder what is the difference between Ammonite and Ammolite?
Ammonites are fossils cephalopods who once inhabited the inland subtropical sea that bordered the Rocky Mountains-this area is known today as the Cretaceous or Western Interior Seaway.
Ammolite is one of the worlds few biogenic gemstones mined in Canada that is made of fossilized Nacre of ancient ammonites, consisting primarily of aragonite. It displays an opal-like iridescence and was recognized as an official gemstone by the World Jewellery Confederation in 1981. Commercial mining of ammolite began in the same year, and ammolite was also recently designated as the official gemstone of Alberta in 2022.
