GREENSTONE
The Michigan State Gem is commonly called Greenstone or Isle Royale Greenstone. Chlorastrolite is the mineral name, a variety of pumpellyite. Chlorastrolite is found chiefly as small rounded pebbles on the beaches of Isle Royale in Lake Superior and also throughout the Keweenaw Peninsula. Greenstone is associated with the native copper deposits. The Keweenaw Greenstones are often found as black to green colored nodules in vesicles of the amygdaloidal basalts. Most Greenstones are smaller than a pea, and larger ones are rare treasures.
The prices of Greenstone products varies widely according to the patterns, color, chatoyancy, size, source, and overall quality deals. We try to offer earring at various price levels. Owning and wearing Michigan's unique greenstone is a delight for our customers.
