Chromian Titanite, also known as Chrome Titanite or Chrome Sphene, may be the chromium (Cr) rich selection of Titanite. The chromium causes this variety to be colored intensly, vivid green. Titanite is usually colorless, brown, pale to medium green, yellow, black colored or rose-red. Green Titanite isn’t normally as intensly or vividly green as Chromian Titanite. Crystals are beautiful and faceted gems are spectacular with extreme dispersion, quite high birefringence and intense color that is green.

The origin that is main of Titanite is the Saranovskii Mine, Saranovskaya Village, Gornozavodskii area, Permskaya Oblast’, Middle Urals Region, Russia.
