From the rugged mountains of East Java, comes yet another beautiful rock formed by a combination of tectonic and volcanic activity

The East Java Plume Agate is hosted in orange red jasper which has been splintered by faulting and flooded with blue-ish white chalcedonic quartz veins. The flame and plume shapes occur along the fringes of the veins and occasionally as wedges and pods within the veins. In the soil they find silicified nodules of greenish to golden yellow, orange and red plumes and flame shapes. The minerals forming the plumes are mainly yellow goethite and red hematite. They occur along with white crusts of hydrated silica and black to brown pockets and outlines of iron or manganese hydroxide minerals
