<p>Ragnar Ïzingdust: /* In Real Life */</p> <hr /> <div>{{Quality|Fine}}{{gemlookup/0}}{{av}}<br /> <br /> '''Morganite''' is a purple, semi-precious [[gem]] found within [[granite]], [[schist]], and [[marble]].<br /> <br /> ==In Real Life==<br /> Morganite is a pink [[Beryl]] named after the famous industrialist and gem collector J. P. Morgan. Like most Beryls it's base chemical composition is Be3Al2Si6O18, it's distinctive pink color and mild fluorescence under UV come from impurities in the matrix. <br /> <br /> ==In Other Games==<br /> In the Video Game 'Alpha Centauri' &quot;Morganite&quot; is a term for one of the seven original factions, led by &quot;CEO Nwabudike Morgan&quot;, who was named after the famous industrialist mentioned above by the game designers. It is unclear weather Beryls of any description exist on 'Charon' due to the relative scarcity of free oxygen, however if they do &quot;Morganites&quot; would almost certainly be prized by the luxury and wealth loving Morganic faction for no reason other than their status as semiprecious stones and the vanity of the eponymous name. <br /> <br /> {{gamedata}}<br /> {{gems}}</div>
