Rare Magnophrase in 925 Sterling Silver ~ Australia
$134.00
Here is one you don't see often! Magnophase is an Australian stone composed of chrysoprase and magnesite, creating patterns and colors similar to Wild Horse Magnesite but with natural green tones from nickel-rich chrysoprase.
Chrysoprase is a variety of chalcedony colored by nickel, formed in weathered ultramafic rocks, while magnesite is a magnesium carbonate mineral that forms through the alteration of magnesium-rich rocks. This rare combination reflects Australia’s unique geology, where silica- and magnesium-rich environments intersect to produce stones that are both visually distinctive and geologically uncommon.
