CROATIAN DIAMOND presents: BLACK VOLCANIC - SNOW OBSIDIAN, WITH A LOT OF CRYSTAL INCLUSIONS OF PRECIOUS STONE (most likely ZINCITE or PERIDOT - Olivin)!

This beautiful obsidian is extremely rich in inclusions of the precious stone ZINCITE, which is formed at high temperatures in the crater of a volcano (molten zinc ore mixed with molten SiO2 and formed during sudden cooling, this beautiful and rare mineral).

It should be emphasized that the inclusions are precious stones with the property of opal, that they sparkle yellow dots in opalized crystals (probably zincite or peridot).

There is a small possibility that it is also a semi-precious stone, peridot, or some other rarer precious stone, but without a detailed GC analysis of the chemical composition of this mineral, the exact composition will not be known.
