Here is a fun find from the Tube Agate dig in Oregon's Ococho Mountains. The agate 'worm' goes all the way through the crystal, and agate layers. Woody Front back

The 'worm' is actually an agate tube that has run through the crystal layer from the base agate. Still, it does look like a worm. Woody
