GEOLOGICAL IDENTIFICATION

Agate is a naturally occurring variety of chalcedony, a microcrystalline form of quartz. It develops when silica-rich fluids deposit material within cavities or openings in volcanic and other geological environments. Over time, successive mineral deposition can create contrasting zones, translucent areas and varied internal patterns. Natural agate specimens are valued because each piece records a different history of mineral growth and cannot be duplicated exactly.

The additional identification supplied for this specimen is Miocene. The Miocene is a recognised epoch within the Neogene Period of the Cenozoic Era. This geological designation provides important context for collectors interested in the age and formation history associated with the specimen.

ORIGIN AND LOCALITY

This specimen is associated with Mount Cidolog, Pasanggrahan, Sagaranten, Sukabumi Regency, West Java, Indonesia. Indonesian agate and chalcedony specimens are collected for their natural geological character, varied mineral textures and attractive presentation qualities. The stated locality is part of the specimen’s descriptive information and makes this piece especially suitable for collectors who document regional material or build locality-focused mineral displays.

POLISHED DISPLAY FORMAT

As a polished agate slice slab, this specimen combines a natural mineral interior with a smooth finished surface intended to reveal and present its geological features. Individual agate pieces naturally vary in colour, translucency, internal structure, surface pattern and degree of visual contrast. These variations are part of the character of natural stone and ensure that every specimen has its own appearance.

The slab can be incorporated into a mineral cabinet, geology study area, office display, home décor arrangement or educational collection.

Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners and sudden impact, as natural stone can be scratched or damaged through rough handling.
