Agate is a name given to a variety of banded chalcedony. Chalcedonies are minerals of the quartz group composed of microscopic crystals of quartz arranged in layers, formed in volcanic rocks or sedimentary rocks through a process of precipitation from groundwater. Agates are predominantly white, with layers of creamy browns, blacks and grays. Some may include layers of yellow ochre, gold, scarlet and red. Agate is sometimes called the earth rainbow because, in its various forms, the concentric bands in nature form nearly every color the earth can produce, including a colorless form.
