It is typically translucent and has a waxy texture. Agate forms in cavities in volcanic rock or other types of rock, where silica-rich water deposits layers of quartz crystals parallel to the cavity wall. In some metaphysical traditions, agate is believed to have healing and protective properties, and is used for meditation and stress relief.”
