Lemon Chrysoprase (Magnesite) Polished/Tumbled Stones

Lemon Chrysoprase (Magnesite):  This attractive rock is found in the Eastern Goldfields area of
Western Australia in a belt of ultramafic rocks that stretch from Norseman in the south to near Wiluna in the north. It occurs in many of the same locations as that of chrysoprase, most notably Yerilla, Marshall Pool & Goongarrie but in numerous other places as well. 

It occurs as veins & plates but also commonly occurs in nodular form, quite often exceeding many tons in weight for a single nodule.

Occasionally these nodules have a skin or rind of dark green chrysoprase which makes for a stunning display specimen.

Magnesite is magnesium carbonate and occurs as veins & nodules and is an alteration product of serpentine and other magnesium rich rock types. This is produced by hydrothermal leaching of the magnesium from the serpentine.

Most magnesite is white, however in certain locations the presence of nickel mineralisation is responsible for the pleasing green colour found in "citron chrysoprase".

Chrysoprase brings happiness, balance and prosperity. Promotes love, truth, hope and personal insights. It is a calming, non-egotistical stone that brings an open mind to the wearer. It calms compulsive or impulsive thoughts and actions and turns your attention to positivity. A great stone for sleep and relaxation, helps to prevent nightmares in children. It also aids in enhancing fertility.
