48.3 Carats Ammolite Fossil Specimen from Canada

Ammolite is a rare and beautiful gemstone made from the fossilized shells of ancient ammonites. These fossils were formed from the remains of ammonoid cephalopods, marine animals that lived millions of years ago. The shells are composed of aragonite and, over time, they are transformed into ammolite, a precious opal-like substance known for its vivid play of colors.

Origin

Ammolite fossils from Canada, specifically from the Bearpaw Formation in Alberta, are renowned for their high quality and vibrant color play. This region is the primary source of ammolite, and the fossils found here have become a significant geological and commercial treasure.

Ammolite as a Specimen

Ammolite is an increasingly popular gemstone, and while it is not traditionally considered one of the official birthstones in the modern list (which was established by the Jewelers of America in 1912), it has been gaining recognition and popularity due to its rarity, beauty, and connection to the natural world. Some people do use ammolite as an alternative birthstone or as a special gemstone choice for certain birth months, particularly for those born in August.
