about Bloodstone:
Bloodstone is a green stone with red spots. It also occurs in shades of dark green with red, brown and multicolored spots. The iron minerals cause the deep red and brown colors.

Bloodstone is dark-green variety of the silica mineral chalcedony that has nodules of red jasper distributed throughout its mass. It also occurs with shades of brown and multicolored spots. The iron minerals cause the deep red and brown colors. Polished sections therefore show red spots on a dark-green background, and from the resemblance of these to drops of blood it derives its name.
