You can also find Olivine in the Igneous rock Pyroxinite..
Olivine is the same thing as Peridot
Olivine is made of magnesium, iron, silicon, and oxygen. I found the answer of a chemical website because I needed to found out what olivine was made of too.
Olivine has been found all over the earth -- Egypt, Myanmar, South Africa, Russia, Pakistan, Norway, Sweden, France, Brazil, Germany, Mexico, Ethiopia, Australia, China and th…e US. As early as 1500 BC Egyptian pharaohsmined Olivine on Zabargad Island in the Red Sea. Olivine can be found in the green beaches in Hawaii as well as in meteorites, on Mars and on the Moon. http://olivineinc.com/company/what-is-olivine (MORE)

There is olivine within the mantle, but it typically occurs at shallower depths (less than 400 km) as at greater depths than this the pressure causes olivine to become unstabl…e forming what are known as high pressure poly-morphs! These have the same chemical composition but a different crystal structure. (MORE)
Extremely iron-rich olivine is rare, but is present in somenepheline syenite. Other minerals common in minor amounts includesodium-rich pyroxene, biotite.
