Colours: Indian agate comes in a wide range of colours including from light to deep Green, Browns and tans, Grey and cream tones, Rust‑red or orange‑brown hues. These colours are usually arranged in concentric bands, zig‑zag “fortification” patterns, or clouded/mossy zones. Moss-like or dendritic inclusions are common, giving a “moss agate” look in some specimens. These colours are typically associated with the presence of minerals like iron oxide, manganese oxide, and chromium oxide during its formation.
