Variscite forms as nodules within phosphate-rich rock, and Caramel Mountain material mined in Nevada is known specifically for this two-tone character: cool sage-green fields shifting into warm caramel-brown zones, often within a single stone. That color transition happens where the mineral composition shifts slightly during formation, giving each cabochon its own internal weather pattern rather than a uniform field.
