Polished On One Side Mtorolite Plates x 4 From Mutorashanga, Zimbabwe

A NOTE FROM NICK 
4 Medium sized polished Mtorolite Plate specimens. Because of Mtorolite being so rare and expensive (US$90 per lb at Gem shows!) we picked out the thinner plates at the mine in Zimbabwe that have vugs and crystalline areas and made them into affordable display plates. 

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Mtorolite: The Exquisite Chrome Chalcedony from Zimbabwe

Emerald Mtorolite is a rare, vibrant green variety of Chrome Chalcedony found only in Zimbabwe. Its color ranges from deep forest green to a lighter emerald hue, caused by trace amounts of Chromium within its structure. This unique mineral is typically opaque with a glassy to waxy luster and is prized for its rich color, often mistaken for Jade due to its resemblance.
