Lawsonite is a not commonly represented in collections, though this mineral is probably more widespread than perceived. In the U.S., the only significant localities are in the Coast Ranges area of Central California. Large, pale blue crystals of Lawsonite were found at the
type locality near the Reed Station in the Tiburon Peninsula, Marin Co., California. This locality has since been built over and is no longer in existence. Light tan and pink crystals have come from Valley Ford, Sonoma Co., California. A deep green, chromium-rich form of Lawsonite was reported as newly discovered material from Cape Marmari, Syros Island, Greece, in 2010.
