Diopside, amphibole, feldspar, mica, apatite, titanite (sphene), and zircon may also occur. Because lapis is a rock of varying composition, its physical properties are variable. Lapis lazuli is a blue rock containing lazurite, calcite and pyrite.  Lapis is a rock, not a mineral, because it is made up from various other minerals. To be a mineral it can only have one constituent.
