SomethingIsFishy Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 It might be Epidote. Where did you find it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coco Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 (edited) Epidote is a green mineral (silicate), with a specific chemical formula. Here there is no crystalline form, so it is geological and not mineralogical. In addition, we can see lighter or coloured areas differently, which excludes a mineral per se.

FranzBernhard Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Could be quartzite with some green mica (muscovite var. fuchsite) in it. Franz Bernhard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludwigia Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 There are so many possibilities that you'd need to either get a chemical analysis or show it to an expert at your nearest natural history museum or university department of geology. Most of us here specialize in fossils and have only a rudimentary knowledge of mineralogy, so it's hard to judge something like this based only on just a few photos.
