Cut and polished piece of bloodstone
A cut and polished piece of bloodstone or heliotrope, a type of chalcedony. Chalcedony is a microcrystalline, variety of the mineral quartz (silicon oxide). The presence of impurities can give a wide range of colours, which may be distributed in regular bands or zones, in clouds or in dendritic forms. Bloodstone is an opaque green form with red markings, reminiscent of drops of blood. The red spots are caused by iron oxide impurities

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a cut and polished piece of bloodstone, also known as heliotrope. Bloodstone is a remarkable type of chalcedony, which belongs to the microcrystalline variety of quartz. The mineral quartz, composed mainly of silicon oxide, can exhibit an array of colors due to impurities present within it. These impurities may create regular bands or zones, clouds, or even dendritic forms. Bloodstone specifically stands out with its opaque green hue adorned by striking red markings resembling drops of blood. These vibrant red spots are caused by iron oxide impurities found in the stone. The photograph beautifully captures the intricate details and unique coloration that make bloodstone so visually appealing. It serves as a testament to the wonders found within our natural world and highlights the diversity that exists among minerals. Displayed by Science Photo Library, this image invites us to appreciate both the scientific significance and aesthetic beauty inherent in geological formations such as bloodstone. It reminds us that nature's artistry extends far beyond what we often encounter in our daily lives.
