About Prasiolite

Prasiolite is transparent to translucent green quartz. Nearly all commercial prasiolite is made by heat treating amethyst or by irradiating certain quartz, and natural prasiolite is scarce. It is often sold under the trade name green amethyst, although US Federal Trade Commission guidance does not recognize that name, since amethyst is by definition purple.

Stone Meaning: Prasiolite is traditionally associated with growth and renewal.
