Description
Red Jasper Heart
Jasper is an aggregate stone, mainly composed of Quartz and Iron. The presence of Iron Oxide (the mineral responsible for its rich, red colouring) pigments the compound, resulting in its distinctive colouring and patterns across the surface of the stone.
The patterning is created when rocks composed of several different fragments are naturally melded together, creating banding and veins within its matrix. In Red Jasper, this commonly occurs during tectonic activity within the Earth’s crust, as disturbing deposits of Jasper causes it to continuously grow and fill any new cracks or veins that have been created.
Red Jasper is a stone commonly used for manifesting strength and wisdom.
