Old stock chunk of Chicken Track Jasper showing sandstone-like rolling hills pattern. While this piece sadly lacks the blue sky that some of the best Chicken Track features, the naturalistic desert appearance is just as beautiful in its own right. Chicken track impressions are visible on the top, confirming the iconic feature that gave this material its name. From Oregon, USA.

Chicken Track Jasper is old stock material believed to contain fossil worm tunnels, adding paleontological interest to its lapidary appeal. The material shows interesting patterns and colors and can produce picture jasper when cut properly. It gets its distinctive name from the tunnel impressions on the surface that resemble chicken tracks in mud. The scarcity of this vintage Oregon material makes it increasingly valuable.
WHAT MAKES IT SPECIAL
The desert landscape look stands on its own visually, even without the blue sky cap. Visible chicken tracks on the surface confirm the fossil worm tunnel feature this material is named for.
PERFECT FOR
• Cabochon cutting
• Picture jasper collectors
