Agate ID: agate_004
Weight 1.1oz. 1 1/2" x 1 1/8" x 7/8".
Twin agates, a red and amber formed so differently
in a hard basalt like base. Facinating!

Agate ID: agate_017
Weight 0.2oz. 3/4" x 3/4" x 5/8".
This high powered purple agate nodule is still
attached to surrounding basalt. Nicely water washed. Attached
nodules are unique to Paradise beach and surrounding shorelines
compared to glacier carried agates which tend not to have
surrounding Basalt.

Agate ID: agate_021
Weight 0.3oz (est. agate only). There's nothing more exciting then
finding nature hard at work. This agate has not freed completely
from surrounding Basalt. Basalt is naturally water washed,
flattened on the bottom so the rock sets right.

No longer in my possession.
Attached nodule. So nicely presented, naturally.

nodule class with a hard agate filled Basalt like cone.

Agate ID: agate_073
Weight 0.2oz. 5/8" x 5/8" x 1/2". "The Hot Air Balloon".
Incredibly unique mostly because of the black markings.
Resembles an attached nodule although the amount of
basalt is very minimal.
