Green Quartz is the most common name for the stone called Prasiolite. Prasiolite is a type of Quartz that contains inclusions such as Chlorite, and Actinolite. It’s these inclusions that give Green Quartz its beautiful and unique coloration. Other names for this crystal include Greened Amethyst, Lime Citrine, and Vermarine. Naturally occurring Green Quartz is becoming increasingly rare, so many stones that are being sold as Green Quartz are actually just piece of Amethyst that have been treated. 

Green Quartz used to be found in many parts of the world in places such as India, Russia, China and Australia. However, since the 1950’s, Green Quartz has been mostly mined in a small section of Brazil. It is sometimes also mined in the Lower Silesia section of Poland.
