Hey Gaeter, here's some of your agates that I finally got polished up. They take a gorgeous shine!!  Up close  There's like plumes or ribbons of a darker red in the clear.  This is the flip side of it, the white is neat looking, polishes nice too.  See through ....  Thanks Gaeter, Cher |

Cher-
Well, well, those turned out pretty dang good and very unique. I like one you flipped; how odd to have 2 totally different sides (well maybe not but nonetheless, it's cool anyway.)
I'm so happy to see some of my local rock start to get finished.
thanks for posting and hope you had fun with them.

Ummmm Stuff that I get from Banjo labeled FOssil Agate  I think it is Agatized bog plant material-- the little spots are iron oxide plant remains I kinda think of it as Agatized peat moss?  I did a google on it and crapped out- |
