Unakite was first discovered in western North Carolina, United States. Its name comes from the mountain range it was first found on, Unaka Mountain Range. Scientifically, unakite is not a mineral, but a rock. This is because its composition is comprised of multiple minerals. These are orthoclase (pink), epidote (green), and quartz. This rock is formed when granite is altered by hydrothermal fluids.
Unakite helps bring balance and integrity to the mind, body, and soul. Often considered a health stone, many people work with this stone during pregnancy.
