CHRYSOPRASE ROUGH LEMON

Beautiful chunky Chrysoprase Rough Lemon Aussie stone.  An amazing colour for a rough stone of some apple green merging into Lemon shades, once polished it will be quite striking.  Usually reserved for jewellers, quality specimens like this are hard to come by and attract high prices.  A great Aussie Gemstone.  At 117g this is a good sized specimen and worthy for collection, but I think it will be made into jewellery.  This material is called Lemon Chrysoprase and seldom seen available to buy.

Chrysoprase, chrysophrase or chrysoprasus is a gemstone variety of chalcedony (a cryptocrystalline form of silica) that contains small quantities of nickel.  Its color is normally apple-green, but varies to deep green. The darker varieties of chrysoprase are also referred to as prase.

This material was fossicked many years ago, the location is now closed for fossicking.

Location:
Marlborough, Queensland, Australia.

Dimensions:
6.4cm x 5.8cm x 2.8cm, 117g.
