Agate, jasper, chalcedony, and chert are all varieties of micro-crystalline quartz. Quartz is the crystal form of silicon dioxide. However each of these minerals are scientifically a little different...but also sometimes the same! We'll discuss those differences and more today! We'll also discuss what causes fluorescence (a phenomenon that can happen with some of these minerals) as well!
