Zebra Jasper is a banded variety of jasper (microcrystalline quartz/chalcedony). Its contrasting stripes come from silica layers infused with trace minerals—often iron and manganese—laid down over time. Same quartz family as agate, but jasper forms opaque and earthy, giving those bold, matte patterns their signature look.
