Unakite 8mm Beaded Bracelet
Unakite is in the silicate group of minerals and is composed of red feldspar, green epidote, and quartz. It starts as green epidote that has been surrounded by alkaline rocks rich in calcium and aluminum and this is where it begins its transformation.
When magma superheated this epidote mix, it became mingled with red feldspar and created the equivelent of a stone soup of sorts which flowed around larger quartz crystals. The pressure from the magma below pushed this ‘soup’ up and crushed the quartz it was surrounding into small chips. As it worked its way up to the surface and cooled it was reborn into what we know today as Unakite.
