A magnesium silicate mineral that sometimes contains other elements, including iron, is serpentine. It’s named serpentine because of its greenish serpent-like shades. Semi-transparent to opaque in appearance, this gemstone displays a greasy, waxy, or silky luster. Often confused with nephrite jade, serpentine can be easily identified due to its hardness that’s rated 2.5 to 5.5 Moh. Finely cut for different pieces of jewelry, it is also carved and used for ornamental objects. The deposits of serpentine can be traced in Canada, Afghanistan, Britain, Cyprus, Greece, China, Russia, New Zealand, and the USA.
