Bloodstone ranks 6.5-7 on the Mohs hardness scale, making it suitable for regular wear. It resists scratching better than softer stones like opal or turquoise, though removing rings during heavy manual work helps preserve the polish.
The red markings are iron oxide inclusions, primarily hematite, that formed within the green chalcedony during the stone's geological development. The amount and distribution of red varies naturally from stone to stone.
Most commercial bloodstone comes from India, which remains the primary source. Additional deposits exist in Brazil, Australia, and parts of the United States. Each region produces stones with slight variations in green depth and red concentration.
