About Seraphinite
Seraphinite is a trade name for a particular dark green, feathery form of the mineral clinochlore. This material is mined exclusively from the Korshunovskoye iron skarn deposit in the Irkutskaya Oblast of Eastern Siberia. Seraphinite is named after the biblical seraphs or seraphim angels: it apparently acquired its name due to its resemblance to feathers, caused by its chatoyancy.
