Could it be Charoite from the Chara River region in the Kodar Range in Russia?

Ok, all you savants.  Here in a much diminished Tucson.  Got a few pieces
of a deeply purple mineral a Russian dealer called "iowalite" from the
Altai mtns.  I can't find anything about it on Google.  Any ideas other
than that I am a sucker?
