Forsterite is named for the German naturalist, Johann Forster. It is one of two minerals that form an isomorphous series within the olivine group. The other mineral is fayalite. Fayalite is the iron rich member with a pure formula of Fe2SiO4 while forsterite is the magnesium rich member with a pure formula of Mg2SiO4. Forsterite's gemstone variety is known as peridot.

Forsterite is found in igneous rocks or in marbles made from the metamorphism of dolomitic limestones. Forsterite is never found with quartz, SiO2, as these two common minerals are unstable in each others proximity during crystallization. If quartz were present, the two would react and form the mineral enstatite. Forsterite is also found in many iron-nickel meteorites. Not just as small grains but as significantly sized crystals sometimes occupying over 50% of the meteorites volume. Thinly cut slices of these meteorites are extremely attractive with the polished steel gray of the iron and the embedded grains of gemmy green forsterite crystals. The effect produces a close mineral equivalent to stained glass artwork.
