Garnierite Pebble

Garnierite is a green nickel-rich mineral commonly found within serpentine-rich rock formations. Its vibrant green color comes from its high nickel content, making it an important ore for nickel extraction.

First identified in New Caledonia, Garnierite forms through the weathering of ultramafic rocks in tropical environments. Its rich green shades can range from pale mint to deep emerald, often with unique natural patterns.

Popular among collectors for its striking appearance and geological importance, Garnierite is valued as both a decorative mineral and a significant source of nickel used in stainless steel and modern technology.
