Circle with fading borders on the bottom

Question

I'm trying to draw this output with css (or svg). For me, the tough part is the half-arc at the left and right side of the circle. Should I stick to pure css or is it better using images?

Any help is appreciated...

This is what I managed to make :

Here is the code :

body {
  background-color: #002911 !important;
}

h3 {
  color: #ffd004;
}

#actions-container {
  margin-top: 30px;
}

#actions-container .action-icon {
  width: 200px;
  height: 200px;
  background-color: rgb(255, 208, 4);
  border-radius: 50%;
  box-shadow: 5px -2px 6px 3px #0000004a;
  /* center contents*/
  display: flex;
  justify-content: center;
  align-items: center;
}

.right-arc {
  position: relative;
  display: inline-block;
  font-size: 30px;
  color: lightgreen;
  margin: 40px;
}

.right-arc::after {
  content: '';
  position: absolute;
  right: -150px;
  top: 57px;
  height: 300px;
  width: 300px;
  border-radius: 50% 50% 50% 50%;
  border-width: 0px 1px 0px 0px;
  border-style: solid;
  /*border-top: outset;*/
}


/*svg {
            width: 33%;
            height: auto;
        }*/

<div class="container" id="actions-container">
  <div class="d-flex justify-content-between">

    <div class="action-icon-box text-center ">
      <div class="right-arc">

      </div>


      <h3 class="text-center">Title</h3>

      <div class="p-1 action-icon text-center mt-4">
        <a href="#"><img class="center" src="/Content/images/lp-homepage/microphone.png" height="100" /></a>

If you need transparency, you can use a mask-image with a linear-gradient.

/* based on @web-tiki's implementation */
body {
  background: #232323;
}

.wrap {
  box-sizing: border-box;
  position: relative;
  width: 50%;
  padding: 60px;
}

/* the border */
.wrap::before {
  content:"";
  position: absolute;
  top: 0;
  left: 0;
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
  border: 3px solid #ffd004;
  border-radius: 50%;
  -webkit-mask-image: linear-gradient(transparent 10%, black 10%, transparent 80% );
          mask-image: linear-gradient(transparent 10%, black 10%, transparent 80% );
}

/* the circle */
.wrap::after {
  content:"";
  display:block;
  background: #ffd004;
  padding-top: 100%;
  border-radius: 50%;
  box-shadow: 6px 0px 10px black;
}

.title {
  color: #ffd004;
  margin: 0;
  position: absolute;
  top: -3px;
  left: 0;
  right: 0;
  text-align: center;
}


body:hover {
  /* CSS checkerboard stolen from https://drafts.csswg.org/css-images-4/#example-2de97f53 */
  background: repeating-conic-gradient(rgba(0,0,0,0.1) 0deg 25%, white 0deg 50%);
  background-size: 2em 2em;
}

<div class="wrap">
  <h2 class="title">Title</h2>
</div>

Try this

body {
  background-color: #002911 !important;
}

h3 {
  color: #ffd004;
}

#actions-container {
  margin-top: 30px;
}

#actions-container .action-icon {
  width: 200px;
  height: 200px;
  background-color: rgb(255, 208, 4);
  border-radius: 50%;
  box-shadow: 5px -2px 6px 3px #0000004a;
  /* center contents*/
  display: flex;
  justify-content: center;
  align-items: center;
}
.action-icon-box{
  position: relative;
}
#actions-container .action-icon-box::after,#actions-container .action-icon-box::before{
  position: absolute;
  content: '';
  width: 300px;
  height:300px;
  border-radius: 50%;
  z-index:-1;
  top:0px;
  border: 2px solid;
  border-color:transparent;
}
#actions-container .action-icon-box::before{
  border-right-color: green;
  right: -60px;
}
#actions-container .action-icon-box::after{
  border-left-color: green;

}
