🌿 Earth-Grown Artistry with Chlorite Inclusion Cluster

This rare specimen showcases a Cluster with Chlorite included quartz, as well as a nice green clear look .This is a natural fusion of minerals that occurs only under very specific geological conditions. Mined and unearthed by hand from the remote rock beds of Kimberley, BC, this small but potent crystal offers a deep look into the mineral processes that take place beneath the Earth's crust over millions of years.

🧪 How It Forms

Chlorite-included quartz forms when chlorite, a group of green silicate minerals rich in iron, magnesium, and aluminum, becomes trapped inside a growing quartz crystal during hydrothermal activity. Over time, hot, mineral-rich fluids rise through fractures in the rock. As the temperature and pressure stabilize, quartz begins to crystallize—and if chlorite is present, it becomes suspended in the crystal structure, resulting in a stunning green inclusion effect.

These inclusions appear as:

  • Wisps or moss-like patterns

  • Dusty veils or internal green clouds

  • Surface growths or partial coatings

Each piece is entirely unique, shaped by the exact chemistry, temperature, and pressure conditions of its environment.

🪨 Mineral Composition

  • Quartz (SiO₂): One of Earth’s most abundant and stable minerals, known for its clarity and high vibration.

  • Chlorite Group: Composed primarily of clinochlore and chamosite, giving this piece its green coloration. Often associated with healing and transformation in metaphysical circles.

🌎 A Microcosm of Earth’s Processes

Though small in size, this 235-carat crystal is a geological story frozen in time. It holds the memory of tectonic forces, fluid motion, and mineral evolution within the Earth. Its soft green color and rugged natural growth tell of a hidden world where heat, water, and stone worked in harmony.

Perfect for collectors, educators, or those who value minerals with depth, rarity, and origin-story, this is one of the most visually and scientifically fascinating finds from our Kimberley digs.
