Chalcedony Specimens (Stalactitic)
A stalactitic form of Chalcedony, sometimes known as Bamboo Agate.
Stalactitic Chalcedony - also known as 'bamboo Agate'.
This material is a stalactitic form of Chalcedony, but may be referred to as 'bamboo agate' or 'fossilised bamboo'; however, this isn't technically accurate.
It is not a fossil as far as I'm aware - it is formed of hollow Chalcedony tubes which may have formed around some type of biological matter, or may have formed in an entirely different way. Further study of the material would be needed.
These pieces all come from Indonesia, various locations around the islands.
Our current stocks include:
- #1 - 59x57x41MM
- #2 - 55.5x40x22MM
- Various sizes of loose fragmentary pieces, typically single stalactites rather than clusters.
