Geology & Origin
Prehnite is a calcium-aluminium silicate that typically forms in hydrothermally altered basalts. It occurs in massive to botryoidal aggregates and often displays a delicate green coloration. The deposits on Java are associated with the island’s volcanic activity and have long provided decorative lapidary material. Prehnite is valued as a popular gemstone and collector’s material, especially for its subtle structures and gentle colour variations when processed.
