Jasper from
Wheal Edward, Botallack, St Just, Cornwall, England, UK


Locality type:Mine
Classification
Species:'Jasper' (not an IMA approved species)
Comments:Most of the quartz cavities with goethite sprays are found in "jasper" boulders.

Peter Haas wrote on this subject :
The mere fact that the locals call it "jasper" doesn't make it real jasper.
It's the material that is referred to by Dines (more correctly) as
"siliceous ironstone". At a microscopic scale, it consists of separate iron
oxide and silica (quartz or chalcedony) particles, while true jasper is a
mass of chalcedony, in which iron oxides are finely dispersed (hence the
lighter and redder colour). At a scale where you can easily see the
inhomogeneity of the ironstone, jasper is still apparently homogeneous. As
you correctly say in the caption, this is a rock, while jasper is still a
mineral. While there also is true jasper occurring at Botallack, it only
sparingly occurs in the mines, whereas the ironstone is utterly abundant.
Colour:brown-red
