Semi Precious Stone Gaspeite Bracelet
 Gaspeite
is a comparatively rare mineral, found only in a few localities.
Its light green, almost apple green color is quite unique and
some varieties are almost neon green. It may contain brownish
patches which might give it a distinctive character.
Gaspeite is found around nickel sulfide deposits
and is named for the area of Gaspe Peninsula, Quebec, Canada where
it was originally found.
As a fairly new discovery in 1967, this mineral has no known
folk lore although it is mentioned that the Aborigine's used Gaspeite
to bring about good fortune. As a healing gem
stone, it is thought to decrease stress and help
with heart, gallbladder and lung problems. Metaphysically, it
is consideration to bring spirituality into everyday life.
