Prasiolite Drops Beads gemsstone

Descriptions

The word prasiolite literally means "scallion green-colored stone" and is derived from Greek πράσον prason meaning "leek" and λίθος lithos meaning "stone". The mineral was given its name due to its green-colored appearance. Natural prasiolite, also known as green quartz, lime citrine and vermarine is a very light, translucent green.

Since 1950, almost all natural prasiolite has come from a small Brazilian mine, but it has also been mined in the Lower Silesia region of Poland. Naturally occurring prasiolite has also been found in the Thunder Bay area of Canada.[4] As of February 2019, the only commercial mine producing prasiolite is in Brazil.
