Prehnite bursts onto the scene as a translucent to transparent pale green mineral from the phyllosilicate family, named after Dutch Colonel Hendrik von Prehn in 1788. This bold mineral often hangs out with calcite and epidote, thriving in basaltic rocks. Its striking and unconventional crystal shapes—ranging from prismatic to tabular to botryoidal—make it impossible to ignore. With its lustrous shine and soothing green vibe, prehnite is a daring pick for jewelry, beads, cabochons, and creative carvings that demand attention. This rugged specimen from Imilchil, Morocco, embodies that fearless spirit.
