Fancy jasper, a form of chalcedony, includes a plethora of colour; greens, burgundys, ambers, mauves, lilacs, creams. These colours are all mixed together. The term jasper has long been used for an opaque, impure variety of silica in the form of chalcedony or microcrystalline chert. Generally it forms near volcanic activity and the circulation of hot water is thought to be required for its formation. This opaque rock can be found in virtually any colour, depending on the additional minerals, of which there are many in fancy jasper.
