Agate or jasper?

Question

Anyone know what this stone is? I'd love some help identifying the box of treasures I've got!

Answer 1

It's not Jasper...It appears to be agate. Where was it found? You don't have to be exact but upper New Mexico would help us identify this.

Answer 2

Pretty sure this is Australian. It's from a collection that has been sitting in a shed for about 30 years.

Answer 3

This has banding like agate, but seems to be opaque which would more technically classify it as jasper. Their composition is the same - its just technical matter how they are classified. I would feel more comfortable classifying it as jasper over agate.

Answer 4

You may be correct...it might be jasper. It was the quartz which confusedme.
