Ammolite

Ammolite is the fossilized shell of ammonites that broke apart up to 70 million years ago, healing in the natural fossilizing process. For use as a gem the naturally opalized shell is glued to a backing material, and then covered by a protective layer (usually synthetic spinel) to form a triplet.

Found only in southern Alberta, Canada, and on the market since 1969.
