Larimar was discovered in a small fishing village where small fragments washed up on a local beach. As people became aware of this attractive stone, villagers set out to find its origin up the river where the fragments were found. They eventually found small outcroppings of blue stone which does indeed mark the only known deposit of larimar in the world. It was most likely formed by a unique volcanic event.
