CHERRY CREEK JASPER (AKA PICASSO JASPER) WORRY STONES

Cherry creek jasper, also known as Red Creek Jasper or Picasso Jasper, is a beautiful veiny stone mined from the Cherry Creek Mine in China. The stone produces a wide variety of colors and brecciated patterns. Though it is typically referred to as a jasper, it is not a jasper in a true sense as its primary component is dolomite, not chalcedony. Like most dolomitic rocks and jaspers, it would have formed from sediment laid down by an ancient ocean.
