About Blue Aventurine  –

 

Aventurine is a quartz-rich rock (quartzite) sparkling with tiny flat flakes of mica or other minerals. That glitter is called aventurescence. Green is the classic and by far the most common, but aventurine comes in several natural colours, each made by a different mineral trapped inside.

 

It forms when quartz-rich sandstone is buried and heated until the grains fuse into quartzite. Flat mineral flakes caught up in the rock, such as fuchsite, hematite or dumortierite, give each colour and catch the light.
