Green opal is a type of common opal, a non-crystalline form of silica and water, that is characterized by its green color, often derived from iron. It's distinct from precious opals, which display an iridescent "play of color". Green opals are known for their soothing and rejuvenating properties, especially when it comes to emotional well-being.
Here's a more detailed look at green opal:
Key Features:
-
Color: Green opals come in a range of shades from pale ivory to dark green.
-
Composition: They are made of silicon dioxide (like quartz) but contain a higher percentage of water (up to 38%).
-
Luster: Green opals have a milky luster, especially when held close to the eye.
-
Inclusions: They may contain dendrites (branch-like structures of iron minerals) that give them a unique, landscape-like appearance.
-
Origin: Green opals can be found in various locations across the globe, including Australia, Brazil, USA, Mexico, and Peru.
-
Symbolism and Meaning: In some cultures, green opal is associated with the heart chakra, symbolizing love, compassion, and healing. It's also believed to be rejuvenating, nourishing, and helpful for emotional well-being, particularly during times of stress or emotional distress.
