Verde Vittoria serpentine has a uniform dark grey-green colour. Closer examination of the rock reveals a mineralogical composition consisting mostly of minerals of the antigorite group (green to light green in colour) and olivine (dark green to dark grey in colour). Small grains of magnetite are often present (darker coloured) running parallel to the principal schistose foliation.
