Real-World Information
Olivine is a magnesium iron silicate mineral with the chemical formula (Mg,Fe)2SiO4, it is defined by it's bright green color, gem quality examples of the mineral are known as Peridot, an igneous intrusive stone comprised almost entirely of Olivine is called Peridotite (which is not present in Dwarf Fortress), and when Olivine is subjected to metamorphism in a low heat, high pressure environment, for example, in a subduction zone (where one tectonic plate slides underneath another tectonic plate) it becomes the mineral Serpentine.
