Starry Night Agate is a naturally occurring variety of chalcedony, a microcrystalline form of quartz composed primarily of silicon dioxide (SiO₂). Its intricate banding, orbicular formations, inclusions, and crystalline pockets formed through mineral-rich fluids depositing successive layers of silica over immense periods of geological time.
