Biggs Jasper is named after Biggs Junction, Oregon, where it was originally discovered. It typically has strong, intricate patterning in various shades of tan, brown, gray, black, and a distinct shade of brown tinged with blues and purples. It grew in popularity during the 70s, becoming highly sought-after along with the similar Deschutes Jasper. The original Biggs and Deschutes jasper locations are no longer able to be mined, but the nearby China Hollow and Beers Mountain have been able to produce material in more recent years.
