Perovskites are entering the market of solar and we have some problems with it
perovskite is mined in Khibina Massif Russia. Is it available anywhere else?
I know that the earth's inner mantle is 93% made of perovskite. Are they mined outside Russia? Why are they so scarce?

I have corrected the locality to the one reported by the person who sold the specimen. It was Magnet Cove not Russia

We like to get locality information correct, as that information matters a lot to us.

This page may help answer your question - look at the map of localities towards the bottom of the page, and list of localities below it (it is long)
