Quartz with inclusions? Sodalite shows cleavage, which I don't see here.

so i should know where this beautiful blue comes from. which inclusions, which minerals give these tunes. i would love to see a colouration chart, but i'm not sure if it's possible, so the minerals have different tunes on different occasions which make it hard to identify.
