The Chlorite group minerals responsible for the green colouration form in low-grade metamorphic and hydrothermal environments, and their inclusion within growing Quartz crystals creates the characteristic layered phantom effect where ghost-like outlines of earlier crystal growth stages are preserved in green. Zambia's ancient Precambrian geology produces Quartz specimens with well-defined Chlorite inclusions ranging from wispy green veils to dense mossy formations concentrated at growth interruption zones. The contrast between the bright green Chlorite and the transparent to semi-translucent Quartz host makes these among the more visually striking inclusion Quartz specimens available.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height: normal;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eASSOCIATED MINERALS \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eChlorite, Quartz\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height: normal;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eASSOCIATED FEATURES \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eTrigonal, Prismatic, Striated, Vitreous, Phantom, Translucent\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height: normal;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eASSOCIATED COLOURS \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eGreen, White, Clear, Grey\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height: normal;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eMOHS HARDNESS SCALE\u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e7\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003ePRODUCT DATA \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eLocality = Zambia\u003cbr\u003eGrade = Good Grade\u003cspan style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\"\u003e                      \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSize = 7 - 55 mm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CHLORITE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50467340550337,"sku":"187-081-260806BM","price":4620.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2066\/6451\/files\/187081_6.jpg?v=1786454618","url":"https:\/\/www.toprocks.com\/products\/natural-green-chlorite-quartz-mine-run-crystals-x-6-kg-lot-from-zambia","provider":"Toprock Gemstones and Minerals ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
