Prehnite Tumbled
Prehnite is a fascinating mineral, primarily comprised of calcium and aluminum, and falls under the category of inosilicates. It is often recognized by its distinctive green hue, although it can appear in various shades ranging from pale green to rich, grassy tones. This mineral typically crystallizes in stalactitic or botryoidal forms, exhibiting a unique, often milky or pearly luster. Prehnite is discovered within the cavities of basaltic rocks and is prevalent in hydrothermal veins, making it a common find in geological settings where water-rock interactions occur at low to moderate temperatures. First identified in South Africa in 1788, prehnite was named after Colonel Hendrik Von Prehn, and it is also known for its supposed healing properties, adding to its allure among collectors and enthusiasts alike
Prehnite is generally considered to be non-toxic, making it safe for handling and various applications, including jewelry-making and ornamental uses. It does not contain any elements that are harmful to humans through skin contact or inhalation under normal conditions. However, like with many minerals, caution should be exercised when cutting or grinding prehnite, as inhaling dust from any rock or mineral can pose respiratory risks. It’s always advisable to use protective gear such as masks and ensure proper ventilation when engaging in lapidary activities. Overall, prehnite's lack of toxicity, combined with its aesthetic appeal, contributes to its popularity among gem enthusiasts and collectors.
