Color & Appearance
Dragon Blood Jasper displays an earthy palette of greens, greys, and reds — the green derived from epidote and the red from piemontite inclusions. The interplay of these minerals creates an organic, almost reptilian appearance, with subtle quartz veins or opaque zones adding visual depth. The polish highlights both the metallic sparkle of epidote and the rich crimson streaks of the piemontite.
Overview
Despite its name, Dragon Blood Jasper is not a true jasper but rather a metamorphic rock composed primarily of epidote (Ca₂(Al,Fe)₃(SiO₄)₃(OH)) and piemontite. It forms through metamorphic alteration of iron-rich sediments, creating an intricate matrix of green and red silicates.
Composition: Epidote and Piemontite (Calcium, Iron, Manganese Silicate)
Formation: Metamorphic alteration of iron-bearing rock
Structure: Monoclinic (Epidote Group)
