Ocean Jasper is an unusual Jasper variety found only in Madagascar. Like other Jaspers, it is a member of the Quartz family, a silicon dioxide mineral with a hardness of 6.5 to 7. Its crystal system is hexagonal (trigonal). Ocean Jasper’s colors vary widely, including vivid shades of white, green, pink, red and black. Its patterns are wild and indescribable, with banding, polka dots, wavy lines with scalloped edges and multicolored florets. The cavities in Ocean Jasper are often filled with sparkling druzy Quartz.
A lot of lore and history comes alongside this interesting mineral. It was first discussed and written way back in 1922, although the location was sadly soon lost for over 75 years. That is until Paul Obenich of Madagascar Minerals spent 45 days searching the coast of Madagascar for any clues of this Jasper’s location. He discovered Ocean Jasper after he factored in one of the most important elements into his accuracy, the tide. For so long this mineral has gone unfound due to it only being able to be seen at low tide. Paul debuted his discovery at the 2000 Tucson Gem and Mineral Show, and has garnered a loyal following ever since. Mining operations of Ocean Jasper was stopped in 2006 when the locality was deemed depleted, as well as heightened safety risks. All Ocean Jasper on the market today is either a back stock or has been hoarded by collectors and sellers for years.

Ocean Jasper helps lift the veil of negativity which many people unconsciously wear over their eyes, and when this veil is lifted, it is much easier to see and appreciate the many blessings of life.
Ocean Jasper stimulates the solar-plexus, heart and throat chakras with its beneficial vibrations, conveying the urge to feel, speak and act more positively. It supports the expression of love in one’s words and deeds, and it helps one to realize what and whom one truly loves. It banishes complacency and the habit of taking one’s loved ones, health, prosperity or security for granted. It brings one’s consciousness to the present moment, relieving worry about the future or bitterness about the past. It allows for the release of stress and escapism, helping one understand the value of the here and now.
