Blue chalcedony is a variety of quartz composed of microcrystalline silica, known for its soft blue color and typically translucent, smooth appearance.
It forms in volcanic and sedimentary environments as silica-rich fluids solidify, often developing rounded or botryoidal (layered, bubble-like) structures.
