============================================================
1. ORIGIN
------------------------------------------------------------
Malingano jasper (also spelled Maligano jasper) is a natural jasper (siliceous rock) known for its unique brecciated pattern of green, grey, red and orange fragments woven together like a painting.
Main deposit: Indonesia (Sulawesi, almost the only source); it is relatively precious because of its limited supply.
It is a breccia-type jasper, formed when siliceous fragments of various colors are cemented by silica minerals.
With a Mohs hardness of about 6.5-7, it is suited to polishing into spheres, carvings and beads.
2. HISTORY
------------------------------------------------------------
Malingano jasper is named after its source area (the Malingano region of Indonesia) and is a new variety widely recognized by the international crystal market only in recent years.
Because of its unique pattern and limited supply, collectors regard it as a treasure among 'landscape stones.'
In modern crystal culture it is regarded as a 'stone of grounding and creativity.'
