Moss Agate is a transparent to semi-translucent Agate with thin green inclusions resembling moss. Moss Agate gets its name not from the green moss-like inclusions, but rather from the Arabian seaport of Mocha (Al Mukna) on the Red Sea Coast of Yemen where it first became popular.
Despite its name, moss agate does not contain organic matter and is usually formed from weathered volcanic rocks. |
