Gray agate is an agate that is characterized by its many patterns and bands of different colors. This natural stone has a generally very light gray, sometimes close to white to a darker gray. Its appearance can vary: it can be translucent, opaque, banded or plain.
Agate has been named after it for three or four centuries BC. It was attributed to him by the Greek philosopher Theophrastus (371 BC / 288 BC). In fact, he discovered it in the Akhates River in southern Italy, and even in Sicily. Today, the river is called the Dirillo and it is still quite possible to find, all along this river, several types of agate, in multiple colors, yellow, red, blue, pink, etc.
But gray agate is not only found in this river. Its formation takes place in volcanic rocks, whether effusive, extrusive or volcanic. Mostly, it is located in the cavities of basalt or rhyolite, but it can also form in sedimentary rocks.
Gray agate is mainly composed of chalcedony and quartz, and mostly silica. The presence of iron and manganese oxides gives it its banded appearance and white bands. It has a hardness of 6.5 to 7 on the Mohs scale. For comparison, diamond has a hardness of 10 on this same scale, which is the highest hardness.
All the characteristics of gray agate mentioned above are accurate for all agates. However, gray agate stands out slightly, because it is composed of various pieces of shells buried at the bottom of the sea. Be careful, however, not to mix it with fossil agate.
In reality, the name gray agate covers several stones such as gray Botswana agate, dendritic agate, gray crazy lace agate. Traces of these agates have been found during archaeological excavations. Since ancient times, gray agate has already been used in the manufacture of various jewelry, amulets or ornamental objects.
Gray agate, as well as most agates, are known for their protective power, particularly against insect bites, snake bites and certain diseases.

The main deposits are located in Madagascar, Botswana and India.
