Verdite, mainly found in South Africa is a gemstone
based in Fuchsite which is a mineral belonging to the mica group. It basically
comes in the shade of deep green. The color majorly depends on the chromium
content of the stone. Sometimes, it comes in patterns of swirled appearance or
spots. However, sometimes the pure deeper greenish shade is tinted with hues of
yellow, white, light green and red. Its first discovery was made at North Kaap
River, South Africa in the mines where gold was found.
