I have some lapus nugets that I would like to break up and use in a

The only problem is that short of taking it out onto the sidewalk and
hitting it with a sledge hammer the stuff will not break.

Any suggestions?

Take it out onto the sidewalk and hit it with a sledge hammer. Well,
onto an anvil would probably be a bit neater, and maybe put it inside
a heavy plastic bag. Oh, and you'll have to change the bag
frequently, but it's a lot less wasteful than the sidewalk. I haven't
tried it with lapis lazuli but I've done it to plenty of turquoise.
