Bumblebee Jasper Home Decor

This Bumblebee Jasper specimen is polished on all sides.  It has unique gray banding and different hues of yellow, white, and a lighter gray on the front.

Bumblebee Jasper (which is actually not a true Jasper) is a complex calcium carbonate mineral with inclusions of arsenic and manganese oxides.  The banding and layering, which resembles a common bumblebee (hence the name), is caused by inclusions of sulfur (yellow), calcium & Aragonite (white), orpiment and realgar (orange), and Pyrite (black).  This mineral was discovered only in the 1990s at Papandayan Volcano in West Java Province, Indonesia.  Since then, this mineral has yet to be discovered anywhere else on Earth, and geologists don’t expect to find another deposit anytime soon. 

 Measurements: 2.5 inches tall and 1.5 inches wide.

Cleaning Instructions: You can gently dust this with a soft or microfiber cloth.

Shipping Terms: Your order will be carefully packed and shipped via USPS or UPS within 3 business days after checkout.  Ron Coleman Mining, Inc is not responsible for lost, stolen, misdirected, or damaged packages and contents.
