PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Mutokolite ("Emerald Mica") Rough Muscovite Emerald Mica with nice Gemmy deep Green Crystals in Silver Mica.
Mutokolite, a newly classified Chromium-rich Chrome Muscovite from Mutoko, Zimbabwe, is a rare mineral initially mistaken for Emeralds in Matrix due to its vivid emerald-green color. Unlike true Emeralds, which contain Beryl, Mutokolite’s hue comes from high Chromium content within its layered, sheet-like Mica structure, displaying a pearly to vitreous luster and often encased in a silky silver Mica Schist matrix. Highly valued for its gemmy quality and intricate patterns, making it a distinctive unique gem that highlights the geological richness of the Mutoko region.
