Banded rock (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

agate

'banded rock' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for agate that I've seen before include "Quartz gem" , "On the way" , "Quartz with bands of colour, used in jewellery" , "Semi-transparent stone" , "marble" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times, the King Feature Syndicate, the Universal, the LA Times and The Wall Street Journal.
