FIRE AGATE is a gemstone variety of chalcedony (quartz family) where layers of heated iron oxides and silica line cavities in rock. Light passing through the many thin layers gives a reddish, fiery glow, from which the name fire agate is derived. The agate has a hardness of 7, and if carefully cut and polished, can make a glowing, multicolored gemstone.
