That pink vortex! 💗 New items will be added to my shop very soon! :) Come visit my shop: https://www.etsy.com/shop/nebuloso About Agates: Agate is the name given to a group of silicate minerals that are made up primarily of Chalcedony. Chalcedony is a member of the Quartz family of minerals. Like Quartz, Chalcedony is silicone dioxide with a chemical formula of SiO2. The main difference between Quartz and Chalcedony is in the size of the individuals crystals. Chalcedony is termed microcrystaline meaning that individual crystals are too small to be seen by the naked eye. Agates are formed primarily in cavities of volcanic rock. Over time silica rich water seeping through the rock deposits minerals on the inside of these cavities. Gradually layers of silicate material build up eventually filling the cavity completely. The layers often have subtle differences in mineral content giving the agate a banded appearance." #pinkbotswana, #botswanaagate, #agate, #quartz, #volcanic, #geology, #mineralogy, #science, #crystals, #stones, #minerals, #gems, #gemstones, #rocks, #favorites, #lgbt, #gay, #black, #grey, #charcoal, #peach, #pink, #chevron, #cake, #pocketrocks, #etsy, #nofilter
