The name chrysoprase' originates from the
Greek words, 'chrusos' and 'prason', meaning 'gold' and 'leek', respectively;
referring to its leek-green color and the presence of golden inclusions.
Chrysoprase frequently occurs in quartz veins of nickel-bearing serpentine
rocks and in weathered deposits of nickel ore materials. Chrysoprase, like all
other varieties of cryptocrystalline quartz, is composed of crystals that are
too fine to be seen as distinct particles, even under magnification. Unlike
most chalcedony quartz varieties that are prized for their multi-colored
patterns, chrysoprase is desired for its solid and vivid green color, which is
reminiscent of the finest quality jade.
