Chrome chalcedony, probably produced by silicification of Cr-bearing serpentinite. This may have been the source for chrome chalcedony gems used in the Roman empire.
"Blue chalcedony nodules have been mined from the Sündikendağı deposit in the Mayıslar–Sarıcakaya (Eskişehir) region of north-central Turkey since ancient times; however, no modern geological study of this deposit has yet been published. Although ancient and current mining production have both taken place in an area of complex geology, the study and analyses of the deposit suggests a simple model of sedimentary deposition for its origin. The repeated episodes of tectonic activity, accompanied by brittle deformation, metamorphism, and hydrothermal activity, which characterize this part of the Anatolian Peninsula with its complex junction of tectonic plates, appear to have had little influence on the blue chalcedony nodules that make the deposit valuable other than perhaps to influence their trace-element composition." (Hatipoğlu et al. 2013).
