MORE INFORMATION
The agate (from the ancient greek : ἀχάτης , achátes ) is a variety of chalcedony , generic name given to quartz , when this occurs in compact masses of silica microcrystalline with a fibrous-oriented texture. Agate has a typical zoned structure which is visible even to the naked eye, thanks to the diversity of color.
Agate is formed by the rhythmic deposition of silica , usually within cavities amygdalari of rocks basalt , or petrified (agatized) woods.
When the agate is presented in flat and parallel bands, of a contrasting color (light / dark), it takes the name of onyx (from the Greek ὄνυξ, ónyx , nail, due to its translucent appearance). Taking advantage of the layers of contrasting color (generally two but, exceptionally, up to five), onyx is used in the glyptic to realize cameos .
Depending on the colors of the bands, there are different denominations:
- brown base layer: sardonyx;
- red base layer: onyx-carnelian.
Pectolite is a tricline mineral, whitish or greyish in color, having the formula Ca 2 NaH (SiO 3 ), which is usually found in fibrous-radiated masses, often associated with zeolite.
Angelite is a variant of anhydrite , a mineral formed by calcium sulfate anhydrous. The name of the mineral derives from the Greek anhidros which means anhydrous, due to the anhydrous chemical structure compared to gypsum.
Aquamarine ( Latin language aqua marina ) is a variant of the mineral beryl , of the homonymous group. Crystallizes with hexagonal system, with chemical formula Be 3 Al 2 Si 6 O 18 , hardness 7.5-8 and density 2.6-2.9. The color depends on the presence of titanium or iron . Heat can cause color change, as can radioactive radiation.
