Youngite is a rare and visually striking variety of chalcedony quartz, characterized by its unique combination of jasper and agate. It is primarily found in the Hartville Uplift region of Wyoming, USA. Youngite typically exhibits a fascinating blend of earthy hues such as reds, browns, and yellows from the jasper, along with translucent bands of agate, often in shades of white, gray, or blue, that will fluoresce green under long-wave UV light. This stone is known for its intricate patterns and the way it sometimes forms in geodes, revealing beautiful crystal interiors when cut open. Due to its captivating appearance and relative scarcity, Youngite is highly valued by collectors and is frequently used in jewelry and ornamental carvings. Its distinct and attractive features make it a popular choice for lapidary artists looking to create unique and eye-catching pieces.
