General and Scientific
The serpentine group describes a group of common
rock-forming hydrous magnesium iron phyllosilicate ((Mg, Fe)3Si2O5(OH)4)
minerals; they may contain minor amounts of other elements including chromium,
manganese, cobalt or nickel. In mineralogy and gemology, serpentine may refer
to any of 20 varieties belonging to the serpentine group. Owing to admixture,
these varieties are not always easy to individualize, and distinctions are not
usually made. There are three important mineral polymorphs of serpentine:
antigorite, chrysotile and lizardite.
Many types of serpentine have been used for jewellery and
hardstone carving, sometimes under the name false jade or Teton jade.
Serpentine is the name used for several different aggregate
structures which are usually green, yellowish green, or brownish green in
color. The finer serpentine is cut as cabochons for gemstones, or carved into
decorative objects. Though serpentine is sometimes confused with jade,
serpentine is usually spotted or veined.
The serpentine group includes as many as 20 different
members. All the serpentines are a basic magnesium silicate, with many
containing iron as well. Other elements may also be present in small
quantities, including chromium, nickel and cobalt.
Two basic structures for serpentine are usually
distinguished -- antigorite (leafy serpentine) and chrysotile (fibrous
serpentine). The chrysotile minerals are more likely to form serpentine asbestos,
while antigorite forms cryptocrystalline masses sometimes with a lamellar or
micaceous character. Since asbestos fibers are a health hazard only the
antigorite form is used for gemstones or carvings.
Most serpentine are opaque to translucent, with a hardness
rating ranging from 2.5 to 5.5. Antigorite tends to be the harder variety.
Serpentine is fairly light, with a density of 2.44 to 2.62, slightly lower than
quartz. Luster ranges from greasy to waxy to silky. Serpentine is known to be
susceptible to acids.
A number of trade names have been introduced to refer to
serpentine variants, including bastite, bowenite, connemara, verd-antique and
williamsite. You may also encounter terms such new jade, noble serpentine and
precious serpentine. However the latter three terms are not used in gemology.
Serpentine varieties are found in many places in the world,
including Afghanistan, Burma, China, New Zealand, the USA, Canada, UK, Greece,
Italy and Norway.
