Unakite or Unakyte
Unakite is a colorful mix of a light to vivid salmon or coral pink, and a blend of light to dark greens (including pistachio and olive green). The greens are generally mottled in appearance—But in some stones, the salmon or coral can be quite blazing, like brilliant sunspots. The stone is named for the Unaka Mountains in the Southeastern U.S.A., where it was first discovered, but is also found in South Africa, Brazil and China. Metaphysical essence: Emotional balance, confidence, unity, health and happiness.
