The Crystal System...
Rainforest Jasper has a Trigonal crystal system and is formed in a secondary manner. It is in the mineral class of oxdies in the Quartz group.
Basically, Jaspers are fine grained Quartz that contain a host of foreign materials. When the original silicic acid solution penetrated clay or sandy rock, loads of suspended particles permeated the solution. When the silicic acid solidified into quartz, these fine particles stay trapped which gives Jasper its opaque coloring and this is the reason geology lists it as formed in a secondary manner.
Rainforest Jasper could also be correctly identified as Rhyolite. They have separate trade names due to their difference in color and where they are found. The all green variety of Rhyolite come from South America and areas in Scotland. This variety now called Rainforest Jasper comes from Australia. The beautiful reds and yellows come from iron that was added to the mix before crystalizing.
