What Is Green Moonstone Made Of?

Green Moonstone, otherwise known as Garnierite, is a type of Moonstone with a distinctive bright green hue, and is a rare silicate mineral which is also an important nickel ore. 

The composition of this stone can vary widely, and many specimens also contain other minerals such as chlorite and serpentine.

The signature green colour of Green Moonstone (Garnierite) is caused by nickel inclusions in the rock, which is usually a form of Serpentine rock.

Green Moonstones grow as Feldspar minerals like other Moonstones. 

What Does Green Moonstone Look Like? 

The shimmering, silvery Feldspar backdrop of this gorgeous Green Moonstone (Garnierite) crystal contrasts brilliantly against vibrant shades of mint and pistachio green colours, which are sometimes neon-like in their vividness. 

These streaks and swirls of green create mesmerising patterns atop the Moonstone surface.

In some Green Moonstones, the Adularescent Effect is displayed: Adularescence is the name for the stunning blue flashes of light which dance across the surface of Moonstones, making them stunning Flashy Gemstones. 

Although some Green Moonstone (Garnierite) specimens display this shimmering inner glow which sometimes manifests in mesmerising flashes of blue light, not all do.
