Peridotite is a coarse-grained, dark-colored intrusive igneous rock, which consists of minerals such as pyroxene and olivine. It usually contains olivine as the primary mineral in addition to other mafic minerals, such as amphiboles and pyroxenes. It is very low in silica and high in magnesium.
Peridot (pronounced pair-a-doe) is the gem variety of olivine. Olivine, which is actually not an official mineral, is composed of two minerals: fayalite and forsterite. Fayalite is the iron rich member with a pure formula of Fe2SiO4.Forsterite is the magnesium rich member with a pure formula of Mg2SiO4.eridot (pronounced pair-a-doe) is the gem variety of olivine.
