He pōhaku makamae nani ʻo Peridot i mālama ʻia no kona kala ʻōmaʻomaʻo. Akā no ka poʻe kālaihonua, paʻa ka peridot i kahi hoihoi kūikawā ma muli o kona mau waiwai kūʻokoʻa a me kona ʻano koʻikoʻi. Ma kēia alakaʻi piha, e ʻimi mākou i nā waiwai o peridot, kāna aʻo a me ka hanana ʻana ma ke ʻano, a me kona koʻikoʻi ma ke kahua o ka geology.
ʻO Peridot kahi ʻano mineral i kapa ʻia ʻo olivine, i hana ʻia me nā ʻano mea like ʻole me ka hao, ka magnesium, a me ke silika. Loaʻa pinepine ʻia i loko o nā pōhaku igneous e like me ka basalt a me ka gabbro, a pili pinepine ʻia me ke kaʻina o ka plate tectonics. ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, ua hana pinepine ʻia ka peridot ma muli o ka wela nui a me ke kaomi ʻana i loko o ka ʻōpala o ka Honua, e lilo ia i mea hana waiwai no ka poʻe kālaihonua e aʻo ana i ka mōʻaukala o ka Honua a me nā kaʻina hana kūloko.
ʻO kekahi o nā hiʻohiʻona ʻokoʻa loa o ka peridot ʻo ia kona kala ʻōmaʻomaʻo ʻōmaʻomaʻo, ʻo ia ke kumu o ka hao. Hiki i kēia waihoʻoluʻu ke ʻano mai ka melemele-ʻōmaʻomaʻo ʻeleʻele a hiki i kahi hue ʻoliva hohonu, a ua wehewehe pinepine ʻia ʻo ia he "pear-like." Ma waho aʻe o kona kala, ua ʻike ʻia ʻo peridot no ka paʻakikī a me ka lōʻihi, e lilo ia i koho kaulana no nā mea nani.
Loaʻa ʻia ʻo Peridot ma kekahi mau wahi a puni ka honua, me kekahi o nā waihona waiwai nui loa i loaʻa i ka ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa, Kina, a me Pakistan. Loaʻa iā ia ma nā mea liʻiliʻi ma nā ʻāina ʻē aʻe e like me Brazil, Norewai, a me Rusia. Ma ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa, hiki ke loaʻa ka peridot ma Arizona, i ʻike ʻia no kāna mau waihona waiwai o ka pōhaku makamae.
Ma ke ʻano he pōhaku makamae, ua mahalo ʻia ka peridot no nā kenekulia a he moʻolelo lōʻihi kona hoʻohana ʻana i nā mea nani a me nā mea hoʻonaninani ʻē aʻe. He koho kaulana nō hoʻi ia no nā mea hōʻiliʻili a me nā mea hoihoi ma muli o kāna mau waiwai kūʻokoʻa a me ka laulā o nā kala. Eia naʻe, no ka poʻe kālaihonua, ʻoi aku ka peridot ma mua o kahi pōhaku nani. He mea paahana waiwai ia no ka hoomaopopo ana i ka moolelo o ka Honua a me ka hana o loko, a he mea nui ia o ke kula honua.
I ka hopena, ʻo peridot kahi mineral hoihoi a koʻikoʻi e paʻa i kahi hoihoi kūikawā no ka poʻe kālaihonua. ʻO kāna mau waiwai kūʻokoʻa, ka hanana ʻana i ke ʻano, a me kāna kuleana i ke kahua o ka geology e lilo ia i ʻāpana koʻikoʻi o ke aʻo ʻana i ka Honua a me kāna mau hana. Inā he kanaka kālaihonua ʻoe or He mea aloha wale i nā pōhaku makamae nani, ʻo peridot kahi mineral e paʻa pono e hopu i kou manaʻo.
