Aventurine Quartz / Green Aventurine
Also known asIndian jade (not to be used as a name)
A market trade name for Aventurine Quartz; the material is still quartzite and has nothing to do with Jadeite or Nephrite, so it must not be sold as a type of jade. This page compares how the major standards and institutions name it, what must be disclosed when selling it, whether it can be worn every day, how it is treated and identified, and which source each conclusion comes from.
Price, rarity and origin are outside the scope of this wiki.

Material research: formation, causes and history
What authoritative sources say about how this material forms, what causes its colour and optical effects, where its name comes from and how people have used it. Each statement carries an evidence grade and its sources; it describes the material in general, not any specific piece.
How it forms
Aventurine Quartz / Green Aventurine is the trade or market name for aventurine quartz, a quartz/quartzite carrying reflective mica inclusions that is commonly sold as quartzite jade; its parent is quartz or quartzite. In mineralogy the name ‘aventurine’ originally referred to quartzite — a metamorphic rock made up largely of polycrystalline quartz — carrying glimmering mica crystals. Reflection off isolated, visually discernible flat interfaces (oriented mica flakes) produces its sparkle, the effect known as aventurescence. CIBJO lists Aventurine Quartz among the varieties of macrocrystalline quartz. The old label ‘Indian jade’ wrongly applies the word jade to a material that is not jade, and is misleading.
Scope: Covers an overview of the formation of dong ling yu (a trade name for aventurine quartz/quartzite jade); formation content follows that of the parent material quartz/quartzite.

Where it forms
Quartz occurs in hydrothermal veins, granites/pegmatites, sandstones and quartzites; Aventurine Quartz / Green Aventurine often occurs as mica-bearing quartzite (a metamorphic rock).
Sources G&G Summer 2025 · Handbook of Mineralogy
How it forms, step by step
A silica-rich system crystallizes quartz (polycrystalline quartzite or vein quartz).
Sources G&G Summer 2025 · Handbook of Mineralogy
Platy minerals such as mica are trapped as oriented inclusions.
Sources G&G Summer 2025 · Handbook of Mineralogy
Oriented platy inclusions form visually discernible flat interfaces whose reflection produces aventurescence.
Sources G&G Summer 2025 · Handbook of Mineralogy
Link to appearance
The glitter comes from reflection off flat interfaces such as oriented mica flakes, an optical mechanism; 'jade' and similar appearance/market names alone cannot prove identity, naturalness, or origin.

- quartzite: Green aventurine commonly occurs as quartzite containing glittering mica
Supporting findings
Aventurine Quartz / Green Aventurine refers to aventurine quartz — quartzite (a metamorphic rock predominantly of polycrystalline quartz) containing glimmering mica crystals; its glitter (aventurescence) is caused by reflection off visually discernible flat interfaces (oriented mica flakes).
Evidence grade AScope: Formation rests on the parent quartzite; does not claim it is an independent material.
The siliceous parent of Aventurine Quartz / Green Aventurine (quartz) occurs in hydrothermal veins, granites and pegmatites, sandstones and quartzites, and commonly as quartzite.

These are localities recorded by authoritative sources, not an origin finding for any individual piece. The CIBJO Gemstone Book (2022, §4.2.3) says a place of origin names where a gem was mined or harvested, is a matter of opinion, does not imply a level of quality, and that cutting, processing or exporting centres must not be used to imply origin. See how far testing can go on this page, the origin determination guide and the overview of recorded localities.
Causes of colour and optical effects
Aventurescence refers to the glitter produced when isolated, individually visible flat interfaces are dispersed inside a gemstone that is transparent to translucent.
Evidence grade AScope: Describes the aventurescence mechanism; does not claim it is unique to Aventurine Quartz / Green Aventurine.
Where the name comes from
The mineral entity of aventurine quartz is quartz; this etymology belongs to the parent mineral quartz — its name is of obscure origin in the Middle Ages, first applied to gangue in Saxony, Germany. It is not the origin of the trade name "aventurine".
Evidence grade BScope: This states only the origin of the name and does not establish the material's composition, locality, natural origin, or whether it was treated. The etymology belongs to the parent mineral name and is not the origin of the trade or variety name itself.
Sources Handbook of Mineralogy
Other research findings
'Dongling yu' / 'Dongling shi' (the Chinese names) is the market/commercial name for the macrocrystalline quartz variety 'Aventurine Quartz', with quartz (quartzite jade) as parent; the old term 'Indian jade' applies 'jade' to a non-jadeite/non-nephrite material and is misleading, a search term only.
Evidence grade AScope: Defines the commercial name relative to the parent variety and flags 'Indian jade' as a misleading old term.

Answer at a glance
"Aventurine Quartz / Green Aventurine" is a market name rather than a mineral species name; before using it, verify: Trade name rather than a mineralogical species name.
What this means for you
Before buying, check the recommended listing name "Green Aventurine Quartz" and any disclosed treatments on this page, and ask the seller for a grading report if in doubt.
Known uncertainty
- This entry's exact material identity is not fully settled.
- See “Disclosure and cautions” above

Care and wear
No care facts are recorded for this entry itself. Its parent material has care records: see Quartz.
Durability and wearing
Toughness
Brittle, tough when massive
Daily wear
Aventurine quartz ranks 7 on the Mohs scale and is brittle (tough when massive); it is durable for daily wear, but sand and dust are mostly quartz of similar hardness, so the surface is easily abraded and should be protected from scratching and rubbing.
Care
Clean with warm soapy water and a soft brush; ultrasonic and steam cleaning are usually safe for unfractured, untreated material, but as a precaution use only warm soapy water on fractured stones. Avoid chemicals that may attack the material.
General guidance: LumaLark's general guidance inferred from the material's properties (hardness, toughness, cleavage); not text from the cited source, and not a guarantee for any specific piece.
Scope: This field describes the material's general properties and does not constitute a durability or safety guarantee for any specific finished product; the durability of treated (filled, dyed, coated) or composite pieces must be assessed separately.
Treatments and identification leads
One row per treatment, with three standards side by side: how often it occurs and how stable it is (CIBJO), its category in GB/T 16552—2017 Table B.1 (this site's paraphrase) and how the JJA/AGL 2025 table lists it. Each CIBJO value links to its entry under “Testing and market”, where the wording and source are given in full.
This table scrolls sideways on narrow screens.

| Dyeing | — | — | Treatment | — | — |
| Bleaching and filling | — | — | Treatment | — | — |
“—” means the cited source gives no value for that item, not “none”. Source: GB/T 16552—2017 Table B.1 (row for Quartzite Jade)
Whether a treatment has to show in the name differs between the two rule sets (this site’s paraphrase):
- GB/T 16552—2017: a method classed as treatment has to be stated in the name itself — the method put before the name, or added in brackets after it; a method classed as optimization does not need to appear in the name, though one marked “Optimization (annotation required)” still has to be noted in the quality documents. Source: §5.4.2.1 a), b); §5.4.2.2 a)
- CIBJO Gemstone Book 2022: no longer splits treatments into ones that need specific disclosure and ones that need only general disclosure: every treatment is to be disclosed, and the seller tells the buyer which treatment was used and what special care it calls for.

Names
For Aventurine Quartz / Green Aventurine, "Indian jade" must not be used as a name (16 CFR Part 23 §23.25(a); 16 CFR Part 23 §23.1); one further name in a non-Latin script is listed in the name register below (1 with no restriction recorded on use as a name).
Standard and listing namesThe full text of GB/T 16552—2017 does not contain this name; under the national-standard naming of GB/T 34098—2017, Aventurine Quartz / Green Aventurine corresponds to quartzite jade, and the original does not list this name itself; GB/T 34098—2017 Table A.1 lists aventurine as a trade name for quartzose jade, and the suggested listing name is aventurine. Names in four languagesThe four-language names are given in Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, English (Aventurine Quartz / Green Aventurine) and Japanese. Sub-names and unacceptable namesThe mineralogical name is Aventurine quartz, also called Indian jade in the trade; Indian jade is a discouraged legacy market name, kept only as a search term and not usable as a product name, since under the rules of the US FTC, describing a non-jade material as jade would breach the relevant provisions. Trade and mineralogical namesMulticoloured aventurine is a market name, a colour modifier with no registered restriction; by this site's ruling, no clause is attached. Institution usageThe wording of GIA, FTC, CIBJO and Gem-A for the English name is not yet verified by this site, and the entry's own English name, Aventurine Quartz / Green Aventurine, does not represent the position of GIA, FTC, CIBJO or Gem-A; the GSJ (Japan) formal name is likewise not yet verified, and the entry has its own Japanese name.

What it is and how it's identified
Among the registered material facts for Aventurine Quartz / Green Aventurine, structure, hardness, cleavage, density, refractive index, birefringence, optic character, optical effect and lustre take the cited clause's values for quartzite jade (the whole class); they are not measurements of Aventurine Quartz / Green Aventurine itself. Chemical composition, luminescence, UV-visible spectrum, infrared spectrum and magnification are also written for quartzite jade (the whole class) in the clause and are not repeated on this entry; see the material facts on the Quartzite Jade entry. As registered for quartzite jade (the whole class): structure (overall) is a phanerocrystalline aggregate with granular structure; Mohs hardness 6–7; cleavage none; density 2.64–2.71 g/cm³, the overall value being used although the clause has finer sub-ranges, as explained in this site's general notes; optic character anisotropic aggregate; refractive index 1.544–1.553, again the overall value although the clause has finer sub-ranges; birefringence not measurable for an aggregate; optical effect (aventurescence) visible; quality factor (lustre) vitreous to greasy, treatment state: untreated.
Registered material facts
Each row carries its own source and check date and can be cited on its own; “—” means the cited source gives no value, not “none”.
Chemical composition, luminescence, UV-visible spectrum, infrared spectrum, magnification: these whole-class features are given in the cited clause for quartzite jade (the whole class), so they are not repeated on the Aventurine Quartz / Green Aventurine page; see the material facts on the Quartzite Jade entry.
Items below that name the class they cover give the cited clause’s value for that whole class, not a measurement of Aventurine Quartz / Green Aventurine (how to read class-level values).

Who maintains this page
The material facts in the Aventurine Quartz / Green Aventurine entry are maintained by the LumaLark wiki and matched one by one to the standard clauses or institutional sources they cite: every fact carries its source (with a clause or page locator) and a check date, so it can be traced back to the original; clause-level definitions also carry a cross-check result. The entry exists so that buyers and sellers can check naming, disclosure and material facts item by item.
