What would cause this Jade colored green in Crystal.I have better examples somewhere green 001.jpggreen 002.jpg
 

I will venture that the colorization is likely caused by copper sulfides present at the time the crystals formed in quartz.

The yellow color in crystals is better than green though! :thumbsup:

I think your specimen is Fluorite. It looks almost identical to one I have that was ID-ed umpteen years ago by a geologist. It seems I remember him saying it was potentially poisonous, so I wouldn't kiss it or anything. LOL Neat find :) Breezie
