This study sought to evaluate the influence of natural stone presence that was collected from Aceh Province, on the growth and the production of biomass, protein, total sugar and lipid of the microalgae Chlorella vulgaris LIPI12-AL042. Aceh’s natural stone used in this study were nephrite jade (NJ) and black jade (BJ) which were known to possess different minerals composition. The cellular growth of microalgae in terms of biomass yield and its productivity increased significantly (13,38%) under the presence of BJ stone compared to the control. Different results of reduced biomass yield and its productivity were demonstrated by the microalgae culture under the influence of NJ stone’s presence compared to the control. In terms of total sugar, both stones exhibited superior results over the control. The protein content and its yield of the Chlorella vulgaris LIPI12-AL042 cultivated under the influence of the stones demonstrated less quantity over the control.
