Cherry Creek jasper, also called Red Creek jasper, is a colorful jasper that was discovered in Mainland China in 2010 and is ever increasingly difficult to obtain. Though it's typically referred to as a jasper, it's not a jasper in a true sense, as it is a mix of dolomite and chalcedony. It has been immensely popular and is named for the creek that flows through the area where it was first found. Cherry Creek jasper combines softly muted shades of mustard yellow, olive green, and burnt red in brecciated patterns that resemble an abstract landscape painting and that will produce stunning pieces.
