Green Chrysoprase with Druzy Quartz Cluster - Yerilla, WA

This Chrysoprase mineral specimen has a natural vibrant mint-green running through contrasting brown matrix and a very uncommonly seen Quartz druzy layer over the cluster.

From Yerilla, Western Australia - well known for Chrysoprase with opaque green varieties and shimmering micro-crystalline quartz

Chrysoprase is the green variety of chalcedony, a microcrystalline form of quartz. Its characteristic green colour is associated with microscopic nickel-bearing silicate inclusions rather than the chromium responsible for the colour of some other green minerals.
