History & Origin:

Ocean Jasper is the trademarked name for a variety of spherulitic chalcedony from Madagascar. This name has caught on & is now used to describe Chalcedony or Agate-based minerals that display a range of beautiful colours & orbicular patterns. These orbs often resemble bull’s eyes, starbursts, or dots when polished, sometimes even containing sparkly quartz crystals. This mineral was first observed (or some believe simply rediscovered) by Paul Obenich in the late 1990's on the shores of Madagascar. Eight different veins of Ocean Jasper were discovered in this area, with the first being the largest & each subsequent one producing slightly different patterns & hues. Since its first discovery, the original Kabamby & Maravato Madagascar mines have been almost completely exhausted as of 2006.
