Apple Valley Jasper is collected from the exact location and the popular Apple Valley Agate (Sahara Desert of Morocco), but it is a fossil stromatolite!  Stromatolites are ocean-colonizing bacteria called cyanobacteria that get trapped in sediment layers!  Stromatolites are one of the earliest known fossils; in some locations worldwide, they are still being formed!  With Apple Valley Jasper, each layer is a unique story, as the geological events and mineral contents of the surrounding water and sediment give it the color and pattern it displays!  Apple Valley Jasper often features bright reds with gorgeous lines displayed.  They can also have hematite flowers, which create some captivating cabochons!  Apple Valley Jasper takes an excellent polish!
