rose gold necklace amazon The formation and origin of chalcedony and agate

cryptocrystalline quartz jade. Chalcedony and agate have a very long history. About 100 million years ago, underground magma spewed out due to the changes in the earth’s crust. When the lava cooled, steam and other gases formed bubbles, and the bubbles were sealed when the rock was frozen to form many holes. After a long time, the hole is immersed in a silica-containing solution to condense into silica gel. At the same time, the fusible components of the iron-containing rock enter the silica gel, and finally the silica crystals become chalcedony and agate. Chalcedony and agate are the same minerals and can be used as a kind of gem. The only difference is that agate has a band-like structure, while chalcedony does not.

Chalcedony, the blood-red chalcedony, has a dark green background with red dots. Legend has it that when Jesus was nailed to the cross, blood dripped on the green stone.
