Product Description
Aragonite Green Tumbled Stone .75" - 1.5"
Mineral Information:
Green aragonite is a variety of aragonite, which is a carbonate mineral that is typically composed of calcium carbonate. As the name suggests, green aragonite has a green coloration, which can range from pale green to dark green.
Green aragonite is typically found in sedimentary environments, such as caves or hot springs, where it can crystallize out of water and form distinctive, often intricate formations. It can also be found in marine environments, where it forms as a result of the precipitation of calcium carbonate from seawater.
Mineral Care:
Like other varieties of aragonite, green aragonite has a relatively low hardness rating of 3.5 to 4 on the Mohs scale. This means that it can be easily scratched or damaged by harder materials.
In addition, aragonite is a brittle mineral and can be prone to breakage or fracturing, especially if it has been subjected to stress or impact.
As such, it is recommended that green aragonite be handled with care to avoid accidental damage. It is also advisable to store it in a safe location and avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or harsh chemicals, as these can also cause damage to the mineral.
Metaphysical Properties:
Green aragonite is said to provode a soothing and calming energy and to aid in calming the mind and promoting emotional well being. It is used for stabilizing and grounding energies.
