Both awesome minerals, but as a member of #TeamPoison I have to go with chromium green

UPDATED RESULTS:
#KYANITE win and will continue on to the semi-finals.
We’re so sorry for the false hope, #Kosmochlor fans, but we caught 3 players stuffing the ballot box in the final hours. Once their excess votes were removed, Kyanite’s lead returned (although you did close the gap a lot!)

#MinCup25 Admin note:
Given the last-minute surge in #kosmochlor votes flipping the match from #kyanite after a 22-hour string lead, we’re going to be auditing QF3. However, offline-life is taking priority.
We’ll make an announcement when the results are certified.

All four images from Etsy. As if a totem shaped carving with an Asian stylized dragon, of kosmochlor. It's the size of maybe 4 fingers in height, held in a hand in the photo. Green and darker green leaning toward black in parts. "381.50 Carats Kosmochlor Maw sit sit Carving Dragon"
A bright, moss or very bright apple or grass green tumbled kosmochlor stone in someone's hand. It looks hefty and is sort of a vaguely rounded, slightly elongated triangle shape maybe. There are again the more or less black figures making the green stand out even more vividly. Site originally said "931.50 Carats Tumbled Kosmochrol Jade,Maw sit sit Jade,jade albite,jade Burma,chrome jade,green jade."
An egg or diamond teardrop shaped tumbled kosmochlor with basically no bits of black, just dark green in places. Vivid green with the apple or bright grass green mostly in the middle. Site's text said "319.50 Carats Tumbled Kosmochlor Maw sit sit Jade, Albite Jadeite, Jade Burmese, Jade Burma, chrome jade, kosmochlor".
273.50 Carats Tumbled Kosmochlor Jade seen more from the side or top. It may or may not be the same as in the second photo, a bit hard to tell by the angles. The hand is now wearing white rubber gloves of some kind.
Meteorite-derived #kosmochlor = Greek for space 'kosmo' & green 'chlor-'. Originally found in Toluca meteorite in Mexico. Extraterrestrial origins, kosmochlor is also found in chromium-rich jade deposits. Chromium leads to bright apple green colour.

We have #teamgreen #kosmochlor, the jade loving space rock, versus #teamblue #Kyanite the aluminosillicate powerhouse.
Pics below, and let's make this a fair match.
#votegreen or #voteblue, unlike politics, this is not life threatening

When your ancestors were Irish it has to be #TeamGreen & a vote for #Kosmochlor.
Besides, its color is stunning & its name is cool.

maw-sit-sit, a rock which contains kosmochlor. It's intensely green.
I'm on team #kosmochlor for this poll, and for the entire #mincup2025, it's my pick for champion.
It's name is German-Greek fusion for "SpaceGreen". It was first described in a meteor, and it just looks like something that a 60's scifi movie would make with special effects.

Team green! If you click through, there is a fantastic photo of cute little bits of #kosmochlor that look like forbidden garnish, it's really adorable and doesn't even look real

This one’s hard. #hematite is literal blood stone which is metal af but reindeer blood’s #tugtupite has its hold on me. #haüyne has the U umlaut and I do love blues but my #1 is #kyanite so if that beats #kosmochlor faces who wins here. That all said, K may fare better against another blue so🤞🔵

Quarterfinals of #MinCup25 are here, and that means guaranteed heartbreak. The only one that I want to crash out is #kosmochlor (Justice for Azarite! #Kyanite, you know what to do.), but other than that, all I see is the thrill of victory & agony of defeat in equal measure. Mineral Cup vexes me so!

Too bad about the way things are going in #MinCup25 I had a really good meme for #Kosmochlor vs. #Taenite - a classic, you might say.

What nonsense is this?????? Has everyone gone insane? #MinCup25

Danger! Danger!

Huge battle here in #MinCup25
We have ghostly green space rock #kosmochlor versus the more terrestrial titanium rooted green of #titanite.
This is a green battle for the ages and sets up a green battle for the crown.
Pics below and vote!

With 5½ hours to go, #Titanite is gaining on azurite’s killer #Kosmochlor. Titanite is a great geochronometer & a source of titanium used in pigments so it’s key for both geology AND art. It’s time for titanite to close the gap & strike a blow for those of us singing Azurite’s blues! #MinCup25

Yeah, I'm going with #titanite again this round! This colour shifting titan is also known as sphene - a name with unclear etymology, probably from a Greek substrate language(not PIE)!
Sorry, #kosmochlor! (Not as rare as it sounds.)
Whichever of you lovelies makes it through, you deserve it though!

The later rounds of #MinCup25 are always tough calls… After deliberating for a while, I think I gotta go with #Kosmochlor! It’s found in meteorites, and it’s an intense green!!
Go vote!
