A green-blue silicate mineral, it gets its name from the Amazon River where the first deposits were said to be found. Amazonite’s colour was originally thought to have come from copper, however more recent research shows that the green colour comes from small amounts of lead in the water. Amazonite is relatively soft and was often carved. It was a gemstone that was popular in ancient Egypt.
Amazonite is considered to be a stone that has a soothing healing quality and releases blocked emotions. It is believed to help alleviate worry and fear.
