What is it: Peridot is a gemstone quality olivine. Peridot is the most well-known gem variety of the silicate mineral called Olivine. Peridot is one of the few gemstones to be found in a single color, while other stones can be found in a variety of colors (Tourmaline, for example comes in all shades of color). Most gemstones are formed in the Earth’s crust. However, peridot is formed in the Earth’s mantle, which is much deeper. The only other known gemstone that forms in the mantle are diamonds.
