Diopside is a monoclinic pyroxene mineral that occurs naturally in a variety of colours such as green, yellow and brown. Green is the most commonly found diopside colour, which gets its beautiful hue from traces of the element chromium; hence the name chrome diopside. Diopside is found in ultramafic (kimberlite and peridotite) igneous rocks, and diopside-rich augite is common in mafic rocks, such as olivine basalt and andesite. Diopside is also found in a variety of metamorphic rocks, such as in contact metamorphosed skarns developed from high silica dolomites.
