Leopard Skin Jasper Slab Webbed Variscite It’s comprised primarily of ironThough this material is often referred to as a jasper, its technically said to be an orbicular rhyolite, and can therefore be a bit softer than jasper on the MOHS scale (anywhere from a 5 7). It often includes linear streaks that periodically run through the surface, which lend more dynamism to the overall scene.
