Agates mostly occur as nodules in volcanic rocks or waters containing
silica in solution possibly derived from the decomposition of silicates in
the lava. The siliceous matter is deposited in regular layers resulting
in the banded or striped formation. |

Fluorite, also known as fluor-spar, is a mineral
composed of Calcium Fluoride. It is a widely occurring mineral and is
often found with metallic minerals such as Galena and Sphalerite, but also
with Barite, Quartz and Calcite. It may fluoresce strongly in ultraviolet
light. Although blue is the most common color, it can also be red,
purple, green, yellow and white.

Jasper, or spotted stone, is an opaque, impure variety of Quartz that
is usually red, yellow or brown in color. Some Jaspers simultaneously
exhibit several variants such as banding, flow patterns, dendrites or
color variations. This results in what appears to be scenes or images in
a cut section of the Jasper.

from Tourmaline family. The Tourmaline mineral group is chemically one of
the most complicated groups of Silicate minerals. Its composition varies
widely with Sodium, Calcium, Iron, Magnesium, Lithium, Aluminum, Boron and
other elements. It has a wide variety of colors including black,
blue-black, brown, yellow, red, green, pink and is rarely colorless. This
mineral is found in igneous rocks, like Granite Pegmatite, and metamorphic
rocks such as Schist and Marble.

Succinisera (Pine) trees around 45 million years ago from the Baltic
region of Europe. Amber is a soothing material that is both calming an
energizing and said to bring clarity of thought and wisdom. Reconstituted
Amber is made by melting pieces of natural Amber and allowing it to cool
and return to a solid state. Real Amber is not available is large sizes
suitable for making into spheres or other large polished items.

Petrified Wood is a type of a fossil as it consists of fossil wood
where all the organic materials have been replaced with minerals while
retaining the original structure of the wood. These minerals are most
often Silicates such as Quartz. Other minerals, Manganese, Iron and
Copper, in the water or mud during the petrification process gives
Petrified Wood a variety of color ranges: black - Carbon; green/blue -
Copper; red/brown/yellow - Iron. Petrified Wood can preserve the original
structure of the wood in all its detail all the way down to the
microscopic level. Structures such as tree rings and the various tissues
are often observed features. Although Petrified Wood can be found
worldwide, it is rather rare in larger quantities and at times can be
difficult to obtain by the average collector.

Angelite, also known as Anhydrite, is a member of the Calcium Sulfate
family. It is formed in a hot climate and in evaporative deposits of
chemical sedimentary rocks. It alters to Gypsum when dehydrated and
is often associated with Halite and Barite. The name is Greek and means
"without water."

Calcite is a Carbonate mineral that is most widely distributed on the
Earth's surface. It is a common constituent of sedimentary rocks with
Limestone in particular. A Calcite formation can take on many different
shapes and sizes which is dependent on the location, ground water occurrence
and temperature. Calcite is usually white or colorless but can be gray,
red, yellow, green, blue, violet, brown or black. The deeper the color
is usually indicative of the definitive impurities from the earth or water.

Marble is a metamorphic rock consisting of Limestone but composed
mostly of Calcite. It is used extensively for sculpture, building
materials and has many decorative uses. The pure white Marble is probably
the most common form known, but the characteristic swirls and veins of
many colored Marble varieties are usually due to various mineral
impurities such as Clay, Silt, Sand, Iron Oxides or Chert.

Selenite, also known as Satin Spar, Desert Rose and Gypsum Flower, are
the four Crystalline varieties of Gypsum. It is a very soft material
composed of Calcium Sulfate. Selenite is often transparent and colorless.
If color is present it is often due to impurities or presence of other minerals.
