Colors and patterns vary from one stone to another
Originally from the island of Java in Indonesia, this rare stone, with magnificent shades of sunflower yellow, is in fact not a jasper or an agate. This stone would be composed of gypsum, sulfur, hematite in a matrix of volcanic tuff and to a lesser extent, other minerals would also be present in its chemical composition such as calcite or ilmenite.
This stone was used as a dye and elixir in ancient times.
The natives who exploit this sector also call it “batu badar blerang” which means “coal that becomes sulfur”. This idea probably comes from its black bands which seem to turn into yellow.
It became popular in the late 1990s when a local operator sent a first sample to Arizona for the geological fair.
Thanks to the sulfur that this stone contains, the Bumble Bee protects against insects.
