The primary color of Amethyst is purple, but it depends on where it has been mined. People who are in the know can tell by the characteristics where it came from by it's color, and clarity

A purple gallinule is purple. Also an octopus or squid can make itself purple by changing it's color and maybe a chameleon too. But if I can only go with one I'll say the Purple Monarch Butterfly.

Prasiolite is a gem with which one can really be confused. It is traded with variety of names and sometimes mistaken with expensive gems like Green Beryl, Peridot and Tourmaline. The green variety is also named as Vermarine, Lime Citrine or Green Amethyst. Inexpensive, but a true collector's gemstone.\n\nThe name, prasiolite has been derived from the Greek words "Prason" and "Lithos," which mean 'leek,' due to color similarities with vegetables, and 'stone' simultaneously. It is believed that prasiolite facilitates the gap between the physical and spiritual aspects of life. It attracts prosperity through strengthening the mind, emotions and will.\n\nThe color of prasiolite varies from pale yellow green to that with the deeper shades of green. This stone is ideal for everyday wear and it is perfect for a wide variety of applications. It is mined in Brazil and Arizona (USA). The hardness of prasiolite is 7 on Mohs scale.

It has to do with the depth of the stone when found in the mine. Blue to green would be from a specimen closer to the surface and the green to red is buried deeper within the earth. Of course light plays a roll in the color prism of the alexandrites.

It is a silvery white metal, it looks shiny.\nAnd i can tell you it doesn't glow in green :D\n\nNote: the color shown by Plutonium solutions depend on both the oxidation state and the nature of the acid anion, which influences the degree of complexing of the plutonium species by the acid anion.

Probably white.  But, double check that a pearl is even a mineral - I don't remember that, but it's been a while

Well you need to give some identifying characteristics before anyone can ID it for you.\n\nDoes it have crystals?\n\nDoes it rub off in your hand when you hold it?\n\nWhat color is it? Does it contain more than one color?\n\nDoes it have layers?\n\nIs it heavy for it's size?\n\nGive some more info & maybe we can help.\n\n:)
