Aventurine properties
Green Aventurine is a member of the quartz family that forms when quartz is subjected to heat and pressure,
causing it to melt and resolidify with other minerals as inclusions. These inclusions in green aventurine are fuschite
mica, hematite and pyrite. This is how the color is formed, and shades of green can vary from very dark to very
light.
