Introduction To Sphene
Sphene is a transparent gem-level subspecies of the sphene ilmenite group of minerals. It is usually produced in metamorphic rocks, especially in crystalline schist fissures, co-existing with minerals such as crystal, chlorite, and feldspar. Sphene has a translucent olive green with a little dirty, and the crystal shape is strange, like a flat wedge. In fact, the name of sphene means wedge in ancient Greek words. Like a real wedge, sphene can be used to open the door to a new level of crystal healing experience or to enter deep-rooted habits. This makes it an important healing gem.
