Identification Disclaimer

All identifications and mineral notes shown in RockLens are for reference only. They are not a lab assay, gemological appraisal, or professional geological or safety advice.

Identification depends on photo quality and natural variation, and may be wrong — a photo can't measure hardness, density, streak, or chemistry. Some minerals are toxic, radioactive, or contain asbestos; never authenticate a gemstone or handle an unknown specimen based on an identification alone. When it matters, consult a qualified expert.
