Couldn't it possibly be to the ecosystem's mineral content. We don't see these minerals at the surface, but do we know exactly how deep a jhen can dive under the sand, or how hard must something be to actually harm jhen when burrowing throught the desert? Perhaps this jhen is able to penetrate deeper depths of the desert's underground layers, and the change in ground content as well as pressure may contribute to its color and the minerals found on it. That's just how I feel anyways.
