Greenstone By Matthew


Greenstone is more common in Te Wai Pounamu. Greenstone is mostly found in rivers. Greenstone is nearly as rare as diamonds. Because it is so hard,it has been used instead of iron for axes and hand tools. The Mere was often made of Greenstone. You can still collect Greenstone in rivers like the Arahura River.The Arahura River is closest to Hokitika.
