Nice ring. The stone is known as ‘Eilat Stone’ (the name deriving from the City of Eilat – now in Israel - where it was once mined), also known as ‘King Solomon Stone’. It’s a heterogeneous green/blue mixture of several secondary copper minerals including malachite, azurite, turquoise, pseudomalachite and chrysocolla and is the ‘National Stone’ of Israel.
