What is ammolite?

Ammolite is an opal-like organic gemstone found primarily along the eastern slopes of the Rocky Mountains of North America. It is made of the fossilized shells of ammonites, which are composed primarily of aragonite, the same mineral contained in nacre (mother of pearl), with a microstructure inherited from the shell. It is one of few biogenic (produced by living organisms) gemstones. In 1981, ammolite was given official gemstone status by the world jewellery confederation (CIBJO), the same year commercial mining of ammolite began.
