Apophyllite and prehnite are beautiful minerals that are often found together in attractive mineral specimens. Apophyllite is known for its clear, white, pale green, or sometimes pink, glass-like crystals that often form sharp pyramidal or prismatic shapes.  Prehnite is typically pale green to yellow-green, but may be white, colourless, yellow, or gray.  It is commonly found in rounded, grape-like formations called botryoidal aggregates. 

Apophyllite is believed to promote self-reflection and authentic self-expression, helping to reduce stress, release mental blockages, and overcome anxiety by revealing truth and facilitating the release of suppressed emotions. Prehnite is considered a stone of unconditional love, known for its healing properties, especially for healers, and is thought to bring harmony to spaces, assist in decluttering, and create a healing sanctuary, particularly when used in gardens.

Moissanite has become a popular alternative to diamonds for jewelry.  Moissanites have a similar appearance to diamonds and often look nearly identical to the untrained eye. They share the brilliance, sparkle, and fire that diamonds are known for, making them an attractive choice. With moissanite, it is possible to have a beautiful gemstone for a fraction of the price of a diamond.  Moissanites are primarily produced in laboratories, offering a controlled and consistent quality. This aspect appeals to those who prefer gemstones with known origins and minimal environmental impact.

Originally discovered in a meteorite crater, Moissanite is well known worldwide as the world’s most brilliant gemstone, better than diamonds. Moissanite is incredibly rare in its natural form; however, lab created moissanite is identical to the original with hardness second only to diamond.  Moissanites have a hardness of 9.25 on the Mohs scale, while  diamonds are a 10.  This makes moissanite suitable for everyday wear and less prone to scratching or damage.

This sparkling round cut pale yellow moissanite is a great choice for any jewelry project.

This Diopside specimen, collected in 2002, is from the Jeffrey Mine in Asbestos (now Val-des-Sources), Québec, which is a classic Canadian mineral locality. The crystals are typically green to pale green, colorless or grayish-green, and can be quite transparent and glassy. They commonly occur as slender prismatic or very flat, blade-like crystals, sometimes with strong vertical striations. Some of the Jeffrey Mine diopside is particularly attractive because the crystals are transparent and sharply formed. 

Diopside is especially interesting at Jeffrey Mine because it occurs with other well-known minerals from the locality, particularly grossular garnet, vesuvianite, prehnite and wollastonite. Diopside specimens from the mine are now increasingly difficult to obtain, since the Jeffrey Quarry is closed.

Moldavite is a rare, greenish gemstone formed by the impact of a meteorite. It is a type of tektite, which is a natural glass created from terrestrial material that melted during the intense heat of meteor impacts. Moldavite is believed to have been formed around 15 million years ago when a massive meteorite hit what is now the southern Germany and Czech Republic region, forming the Ries Impact Structure. The impact ejected material into the atmosphere, which later cooled and fell back to Earth as moldavite, primarily in the region of the Czech Republic.  The most well-known deposits are located near the Moldau River, from which it gets its name.  It is found in small quantities, making it relatively rare. 

Moldavite has a distinct green color, ranging from pale olive green to deep forest green. Some specimens even have a slight brownish tint.  It often has a wrinkled or pitted surface, a characteristic of its formation process.
