Q: What is Picasso Jasper made of?

Picasso Jasper has the chemical formula SiO₂ with Fe, Mn oxide inclusions, crystallises in the trigonal (microcrystalline quartz) system and measures 6.5 – 7 (Mohs) on the Mohs scale. Picasso jasper is a strongly patterned variety of jasper or silicified volcanic material. The striking angular bands come from iron and manganese oxides deposited along fractures and bedding planes, later silicified into durable chalcedony.
