The emerald is designated as the state stone of North Carolina due to the state's historical significance as a major source of high-quality emeralds in the United States. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, North Carolina was known for its rich deposits of these gemstones, particularly in the Hiddenite area. The emerald reflects the state's natural beauty and geological diversity, making it a fitting symbol for North Carolina. Additionally, its designation as the state stone highlights the importance of mining and gemology in the region's heritage.
