This wonder of the gem world is prized for its green and purple hues that have been infused together by nature.Stichtite is a purple-hued mineral usually found as a deposit within another mineral such as green serpentine. These two minerals have joined together to create this multi-hued gemstone. Stichtite can range in color from lavender-pink to purplish rose-red.
Stichtite was first discovered in 1910 in Western Tasmania, Australia by A.S. Wesley, a former chief chemist with the Mount Lyell Mining and Railway Company. The stone was later named after Robert Carl Sticht the manager of the mine.
