Howlite History and Uses:
Howlite was named after Henry How, a Canadian chemist, geologist, and mineralogist who identified it in 1868 in Nova Scotia where it was first found by gypsum miners. Because Howlite is porous it is often dyed to replicate Turquoise, Red Coral or Lapis Lazuli. Dyed Howlite is called Magnesite and marketed as Blue Howlite or Turquentine.  It can be distinguished from other stones it was dyed to imitate under UV light because it gives off a slight  coloured fluorescent glow.The natural white Howlite is sometimes named “white turquoise”, “white buffalo turquoise,” or “white buffalo stone” and is often used in carvings or bead jewellery.
