南红玛瑙之保山篇

南红玛瑙自开始以来，保山重要的产地也是上出

现最早的产地。《游记》中曾描述，当时来的

云南一个叫做玛瑙山的地方。他看到悬崖峭壁之中嵌有一种玛瑙，

其“色月白有红，皆不甚大，仅如拳，此其蔓也。随之深入，间得

结瓜之处，大如升，圆如球，此玛瑙之上品，不可猝遇。”

据考证，文中的玛瑙山就是现今的云南保山地区。保山南红也是

应用最早，被认知最深的产地。保山料外形多带母岩而且母岩有

的非常坚硬，有的时候保山料雕件会带着母岩雕刻，保山料原石

蛋蛋形状的几乎没有，而且裂非常多。

保山的南红玛瑙矿脉属于沉积岩，呈现层状分布，离地表较近，虽然储

量不少，但是在几千年的地壳和侵蚀风化过程当中，产生了不少断

裂，有些甚至变成碎渣。这也造成了保山料多绺裂的现象。
