Agate. Slice of the mineral agate, a form of quartz (silicon dioxide), consisting of banded chalcedony. The colours are produced by impurities in the mineral, which formed as successive layers of quartz precipitate out of solution. Agate is prized by collectors as a gem and also traditionally used to make a pestle and mortar

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing slice of agate, a unique form of quartz known for its banded chalcedony patterns. The intricate colors seen in this mineral are the result of impurities that have formed as successive layers of quartz precipitated out of solution over time. Agate holds great value among collectors as a precious gemstone and has also been traditionally used to craft pestle and mortars. The polished surface of this cut agate reveals the true beauty hidden within its natural composition. Each sectioned layer tells a story, reflecting the geological processes that shaped it over millions of years. As light dances across its surface, one can't help but be enchanted by the vibrant hues created by these impurities. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, agate is more than just an exquisite gem; it is an embodiment of Earth's geological wonders. Its silica-rich structure, composed mainly of silicon dioxide, adds to its durability and strength while maintaining an alluring translucency. This stunning photograph from Science Photo Library invites us to marvel at nature's artistry and appreciate the intricate details found in even the smallest fragments. It serves as a reminder that our planet continues to amaze us with its diverse array of minerals and gems – treasures waiting to be discovered beneath our feet.
