"It is unlike anything
any of us have ever seen”
“I cannot find anything like it in the literature.”
“This rock is obviously something New or at least Unusual.”

"Your specimen is
nephrite, a variety of jade. To determine
this I looked at a thin section. What makes it unusual is the fact
that it has orbicular structure. “Orbicular” implies that the rock
contains “concentric shells of different texture and/or mineralogy
about a central core.”
...and
afterwards by phone they said their conclusion of Nephrite was in
error and then said “We have never seen this type stone and cannot
figure out what it is and where it came from.”

"Jadeite, a member of the pyroxene group
has the formula: (NA, AL, FE) SI2 06.
This is a much better fit to your X-ray energy dispersive analysis (EDX)
results.
In conclusion I think it is Jadeite, and perhaps the special version
Chloromelanite."

"It is a fresh and Unusual alkalik volcanic rock predominantly composed of the four minerals Quartz, Anorthoclase, Riebeckite and Aegirine. The light green spherules you see in the stone composed of radiating fibers are Riebeckite needles mantled with fine grained Aegirine. The darker matrix is richer in Riebeckite and also contains more Quartz.”

"Is It Just Lovely and Mesmerizing, or Mystical Too?"
You may have seen a new lapidary material being offered for sale recently. It's called "Nebula StoneTM," and is a dark-green, nearly black, shiny material with fascinating, light-green, swirling orbicules scattered through the dark matrix. These inclusions make the rock look like the night sky viewed through a telescope, wherein you see galaxies, nebulae and individual stars scattered against a dark background- hence, the name Nebula Stone.
"It is highly regarded as an energy stone and healing stone by people who are metaphysically attuned."
"The stone now enjoyed by the mineralogist, the lapidary and the spiritually inclined alike."
Bob Jones, Senior Editor

A note to Mineral Collectors
We have pages for those interested in the Scientific, the Geologic, the Mineralogic and the Esoteric for our many customers of varied interests.
Webster's dictionary: Esoteric/Metaphysical: Other than Physical. Relating to the transcendent or to a reality beyond what is perceptible to the senses. (Webster's dictionary)
I received a call from a gruff sounding gentleman that wanted to know about Nebula Stone. I didn't know what his interests were so I mentioned that he could read some of the stuff on the pages on our web site. I mentioned that there was scientific, Geologic/Mineralogic, Rock Hounding articles and esoteric/metaphysical writings.
He then said (real load) "Oh, I don't believe in that metaphysical Crap"
whereupon I asked " Well then... tell me this...What... is more metaphysical... than the belief... in God...?"
....silence on the other end of the phone.
We sell to all Mineral collectors no matter their belief systems. We are happy to help everyone in obtaining a fine mineral specimen for their collections. Nebula Stone is a recent geological, mineralogical discovery, with a unique combination of minerals, named for it's astrological resemblance.
(the gentleman did select a fine Specimen for his collection.)
