Carnelian (also spelled cornelian) is a brownish-red mineral which is commonly used as a semi-precious gemstone. Similar to carnelian is sard,
which is generally harder and darker (the difference is not rigidly
defined, and the two names are often used interchangeably). Both
carnelian and sard are varieties of the silica mineral chalecedony colored by impurities of iron oxide.
The color can vary greatly, ranging from pale orange to an intense
almost-black coloration. It is most commonly found in Brazil, India,
Siberia, and Germany.
