Yaiza is a municipality on the island of Lanzarote in the Canary Islands, Spain. It lies in the southwest of the island and forms part of the province of Las Palmas. The municipality is bounded by the Atlantic Ocean to the west, south and east. To the north, the Timanfaya National Park is partly within the municipality. The eastern part of the municipality is mountainous and, south-west of the mountains, the Rubicon plain stretches to the coast.

At the southern end of the municipality of Yaiza, in the area known as "El Rubicón", the first European settlement in the Canary Islands in 1402, where the conquest of the archipelago began.

The largest town of the municipality is Playa Blanca on the south coast. The administrative centre is the much smaller town of Yaiza. The area is 211.85 square kilometres (81.80 sq mi). Yaiza is about 22 kilometres (14 mi) west of the island's capital, Arrecife.

Habit: Thin needles, to 10mm long, forming radiating groups

Description: often covered by a thin outer coating of natrolite and extending from bladed thomsonite aggregates

ⓘ Motukoreaite

Formula: Mg₆Al₃(OH)₁₈[Na(H₂O)₆][SO₄]₂ · 6H₂O

Locality: Motukoreaite occurrence, Hoyo Azul, Montaña Roja, Playa Blanca, Yaiza, Lanzarote, Las Palmas Province, Canary Islands, Spain

Habit: rosettes consisting of platy crystals

Description: SEM-EDS and XRD analyses performed by Joy Desor. XRD results showed a few unidentified peaks; it is, therefore, more than likely that there is a second phase present. The analyses also showed that MgO was low and S was high. Zamarreño et al. (1989) proved that in Motukoreaite, the concentration of sulfate ions varies between 9 and 18%, and that part of the sulfate ions can be replaced by carbonate ions.
