Crazy Lace Agate

Q: What is Crazy Lace Agate made of?

Crazy Lace Agate has the chemical formula SiO₂ with Fe and Mn oxide banding, crystallises in the trigonal (cryptocrystalline) system and measures 6.5 – 7 (Mohs) on the Mohs scale. Crazy Lace Agate is a banded chalcedony from the Chihuahua region of northern Mexico, where iron and manganese oxides produced tightly folded, swirling colour bands as silica-rich fluids filled cavities in Cretaceous limestone. Its complex patterns arise from rhythmic precipitation and later deformation of the host rock.
