Mariposite

Green form of Muscovite mica in small dense flake groups found in Mariposa (and Tuolumne) County, California. Mariposite forms in metamorphasized Dolomite and Quartz, and these are usually present as veins or as a base material. A combination of the green mica and the veins or base material forms a rock which is also called Mariposite, and it is sometimes used as an ornamental stone.
