This is an unusual Laguna agate from Mexico with some amazing features. It is polycentric, having several agate formations and eyes with mossy/coagulation structures throughout the agate. It also has crystal quartz drusy all along the left side. The open aperture at the bottom left has black and white orbs with red microspheres on the banding around the drusy pocket. All of the structures are floating in clear silica and gives great depth to the structures in this agate. It has a mirror polish.

This is an agate from The Swaziland area next to Mozambique according to the seller. All of the agates from Mozambique display the soft red color and it is hard to find any without fractures. This one is a beautiful floater with a white crystal quartz center. It has one healed internal fracture and three small edge fractures that do not detract from the beauty of this agate. It has a mirror polish.

This is a Turkish Dendritic Opal Agate from Turkey. This is a large colorful agate sometimes called Majestic Opal, because it has a high water content. The white and black around the left and top edges is the usual markings of this type of agate, but I found this one with gold, blue, green and black in it, which is somewhat unusual for this agate type. It also fluoresces as seen in the photo. There are no fractures, although there are a few slight openings in the blue band that fluoresces. It has amirror polish.

This is a River Crossing Condor agate from Argentina. This is a gorgeous agate when viewed under good light. The outer band is orange and gold, next is a clear silica that shows the depth of the white band floating in the silica. Inside that is orange and yellow chromatography around a closed center with a little crystal quartz around some whitish material. It has an obvious inflow/escape tube with no fractures and a mirror polish. The right side and back were knocked off but, do not interfere with the agate formation. A lovely agate best viewed with good light. This is the left side of a pair. See TCA31 for the other half.
