About The Material These Picks Are Made From:

Crocodile Jasper, also known as Kambaba Jasper, is a popular gemstone which is known for its green color and inclusions which resemble the coloration and scales of a crocodile. The main body of Crocodile Jasper is generally various shades of green, however it can include other hues such as black, grey, orange, or tan. The inclusions are typically composed of black spots, but can include patches or swirls of other colors. Sometimes on very dark stones the colors are almost inverted with the main body being dark, and the spots being the lighter greens or other colors. Some of the inclusions are caused by fossilized Stromatolites (blue-green algae), which were deposited in the stone more than 3 billion years ago. Crocodile Jasper is only found in Madagascar and South Africa, is rarer and more exotic than most other forms of Jasper, and is highly sought after.

Jasper is an aggregate form of microgranular quartz crystal and chalcedony with up to 20% of the stone being composed of varying mineral inclusions. Jasper is generally mostly opaque and can appear in almost any color, but is most commonly found in red, yellow, brown, green or occasionally blue. Jasper can feature a wide range of colors with respect to its inclusions as well, with the secondary minerals found within it determining the color. It is found in hydrothermal reefs, volcanic rocks, and sedimentary rocks. Jasper’s name originates from the Greek word iaspis, which means spotted or speckled stone.

Jasper has been used by humans since ancient times, and has been valued for its aesthetic qualities as well as its healing and metaphysical properties for thousands of years. Jasper was a favorite gemstone in antiquity, and was used by the Ancient Greeks, Persians, Assyrians, Arabs, Minoans, and others. Civilizations all around the world prize Jasper for use in jewelry, beads, seals, vases, amulets, rings, and other ornaments.

Crocodile Jasper is a hard and durable stone, with a 6.5-7 rating on the Mohs hardness scale, which makes it a fantastic and long lasting material for use in guitar picks.
