Noreena Jasper Stone Australia Bargain Cabochon Noreena Jasper is a new material that comes from Pilbara region of Western Australia, some 700 miles north of the capital, Perth. Jasper is from the chalcedony/quartz group. It is a microcrystalline variety of quartz that contains up to 20% foreign material. These materials are what determine the color and appearance of the stone. Also because of the foreign materials, jasper is rarely uniform in color, it is usually multicolored, striped, and/or spotted. Noreena Jasper is a silicified pelite (mudstone) and is believed to be 2765-2687 million years old. This lovely cabochon is freeform rectangular shaped for the creative jeweller or wirewrapper. It is 25 mm by 19 mm and 4 mm thick. E-mail a friend about this item. | |||||||||||||||
