Wild Horse Jasper Cabochon

Wild Horse Canyon Jasper is a type of chalcedony quartz that is known for its captivating a mix of browns, whites & grays. Formed by a process known as silicification, the replacement of organic material with silica, starts when mineral-rich groundwater flows through the sedimentary rocks, carrying with it dissolved silica. As the water seeps through the rock, it replaces the organic material with silica, forming intricate patterns & creating a smooth, glassy surface.

Wild Horse Jasper is found in sedimentary rocks, formed from the accumulation of sediment or organic material which are typically found in low-lying areas such as riverbeds or floodplains. While Wild Horse Canyon Jasper is a type of chalcedony quartz, other minerals contribute to its formation. Iron adds the distinctive brown & red coloring of the crystal, providing its unique & eye-catching appearance. Manganese, calcium, & copper are also found in smaller amounts, adding to its overall aesthetic qualities & strengthening its energy properties.
