• Permanent. Products made from it appeared in the Bronze Age. They came to us when they were created. Hard rock can be subjected to various types of machining and polishing.
• Soft. This breed does not differ outwardly from the strong one, but its structure is soft and pliable. It is afraid of temperature changes and is prone to cracks and fissures. The appearance cannot be processed; it can only be used with the whole crystal.
• Marine. Decorative stone is washed by sea waves. Their shape is similar only in color. The crystals are naturally smooth, rounded, and polished.

• jet black,
• dark brown,
• navy blue,
• rubbery,

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES

A gemstone by origin is neither a mineral nor a stone in the scientific sense. Jet is a fossil. His work underwent the qualification of coniferous trees. Trees common in Russia—spruce and pine—cannot become material for jasper. A 90 m climbing tree is required; this genus is called Araucaria.
Such trees grew during the Permian period of the Earth's development; most of them died during the Ice Age. They can now only be found in the tropics. Their number is very small, but excavations confirm that they grew all over the planet.
