Green Calcite Rough Stones from Mexico
The size of these rough green calcite stones varies from piece to piece. They're classed as a medium to large sized stone. We also have some smaller pieces available.
Calcite is a common mineral which can be found in most geological environments.
Soft and fragile it can be transparent to opaque. In its purest form calcite is white or colourless. Impurities in the crystal structure cause a wide variety of colours.
The specific shade can vary depending on the impurities and concentration.
Calcite is allochromatic which means its colour is always caused by something outside of its natural chemical elements.
It was named by the ancient Roman naturalist and natural philosopher Pliny the Elder [23-79 AD]. It was given the name "calx" from the Latin for "chalk" or "limestone".
Calcite mostly occurs in sedimentary rocks such as limestone.
The healing properties of calcite include enhancing memory and psychic ability, spirituality and strengthening intellect.
It's believed to encourage and speed up movement which makes it ideal for when you're feeling lethargic or lazy.
Our rough green calcite stones come from Mexico. They're covered in a fine colourless resin which prevents the calcite from flaking or crumbling.
