2023.13.46Description
Crazy lace agate (also known as Mexican Agate) is young in comparison to many other minerals on Earth. Found exclusively within the area known as Chihuahua, in Northern Mexico, this lacy agate is known not only for its stunning banded patterns, but its powerful healing energies as well.
Crazy lace agate is formed when layers of silica-rich ash and lava are deposited on top of each other. Over time, these layers are compacted and cemented together, forming a hard rock. The different colors and patterns in crazy lace agate are due to the presence of different minerals in the original ash and lava.
