An unheated green zoisite - the same mineral that after heat treatment produces a gemstone better known by its trade name tanzanite.
Heat wasn’t really necessary in this case because it already is a bright, sparkly, pleasantly colored stone by itself and it’s rarer in its current form that it would be even if after heating it produced a very high grade tanzanite.
Its main color is green but the corners show a faint bluish-grey-green hue. This appears to the eye much like how it looks in the photos, except the zoning is more seamless than the images make it seem and the stone is brighter and more brilliant when viewed in person.
