Note: Peridot forms within volcanic rock, so a small amount of its natural host (pumice) may be included in bulk lots. The amount is generally less than 10% by weight. This is completely natural and part of how this material occurs in the earth. Removing every trace would require harsh or unnecessary processing, so we keep it as natural as possible.
