botryoidal agate over ??? weird agate
« on: April 25, 2022, 05:33:18 PM »

    Probably from my Graveyard Point plume diggings. Really nice layer of botryoidal agate  but what is the neat rock under it? Not sure if it is a form of breccia or maybe rutile. I polished the lower edge and looks good to me. About fist size. I will try and get a better picture of the blade like inclusions.
   I have been digging through my buckets of rock to thin the heard. I will be selling pieces like this on ebay or just contact me.
