Mined from: South America

Description: These small Lizardite hearts from South America display the soft yellow-green to olive tones characteristic of this member of the serpentine mineral group. Each piece shows a smooth, waxy luster with occasional natural veining, giving subtle variation to its polished surface. The heart shape highlights the mineral’s even coloration and fine texture, making these pieces compact examples of Lizardite’s understated charm.

Lizardite forms through the alteration of ultramafic rocks such as peridotite and dunite during low-grade metamorphism. It commonly develops in regions of ancient oceanic crust or along tectonic boundaries, where heat and fluid movement transform magnesium-rich minerals. Though less well-known than other serpentine varieties, Lizardite offers a glimpse into the complex processes that occur deep within the Earth’s mantle and along convergent plate zones.

Historically linked with renewal and balance, Lizardite is often associated with calmness and adaptability—qualities reflected in its soft color and smooth surface. Beyond symbolic associations, these mini hearts serve as accessible, well-crafted specimens that showcase both geological transformation and refined lapidary work.
