    Larimar is one of my favorite stones and very tricky to work with. It
    is extremely sensitive to vibration and I have had it disintegrate in
    my fingers while grinding. It will also crack easily and find working
    with it similar to grinding opal, fragile. Another source for
    information is Lariamber.com which is a larimar and amber mine in
    the Dominican Republic. Mr. Hermann Dittrich may be able to help you.
