Agate is a form of chalcedony, formed within volcanic and metamorphic rocks. the coloring is dependent on the region it is found. most agate is often found with white streaks; one primary variety showcases reds and yellows. because agate is a cryptosilicate, there are silicate-relative hazards that could occur when processing it.
