they seem to hide on the back fire side of the concave  botriyoidal. out of 9 5 gallon buckets iv found about 3 lbs.
And some of the quartz points with fire sheen look to them. guess they could be phantom quartz
The Black fire agate from Mexico is rare to get hold of. 

  Thanks for the comment,

   Don D. in lakeview Oregon hi desert rock shop on 244 st. got me addicted to them  in  the 70s.
