Yes they appear to all be agates. Pics #1 & #2 appear to be the same specimen. the white if from weathering the darker interior would be the natural color. They look like they were setting on calcite or something when formed now that is gone. interesting pieces. Images #3 & #4 also appear to be the same piece it is interesting it is like the center formed at one time then the outside (or vice-versa). #5 & #6 look like horse mtn agate from TN. #7, #8, #9 all look like from the same piece some sort of sagenite. #10 looks like a slab of of #1 or what I would expect to see from a similar piece of #1. #11 is a tube agate, #12 looks like a sagenite again, #13 is botryoidal again looks like agate, and the last two appear to be either a brown or carnelian.

I had a buddy used to tell me about the agate that was dug out along the Panama Canal. Lots of fine agatized coral from there and fine banded material too. Really an agate fanciers dream. Thanks for all the cool pics....Mel

Pic's #3 & #4 appear to be a nodule from Sunflower Flat, Warm Springs Indian Reservation, Oregon. The location has been closed to the public since 1972.
