PR606b
This is a very nice Pink (color enhanced) Brazilian Agate Stand Up.
It measures 4 3/4" x 2 1/4" x 4" and is polished on the front face.
This stand up has a pretty Pink color with a very nice Crystal cavity.
Very nice. Agates mostly occur as nodules in volcanic rocks or waters
containing Silica in solution which is possibly derived from the decomposition
of Silicates in the lava. The Siliceous matter is deposited in regular
layers resulting in the banded or striped formation. It is very unlikely
that you would ever find an exact duplicate of any type of Agate, Brazilian
or other.

PR605c This is
a pretty Vase made from Brown Zebra Marble. The vase displays a beautiful
Mahogany Brown color with White accents. It measures 3 7/8" x 3" and
is nicely polished except for the bottom. A very nice addition to any
polished collection or it would make a great gift.
Marble is a metamorphic rock consisting of Limestone but mostly composed
of Calcite. It is used extensively for sculpture, building materials
and has many decorative uses. The pure white Marble is probably the
most common form known, but the characteristic swirls and veins of many colored
Marble varieties are usually due to various mineral impurities such as Clay,
Silt, Sand, Iron Oxides or Chert.

Here is something different for the polished collector.
This is a very nicely polished Septarian Free Form carved from a Septarian
Nodule. It measures 4 3/4" x 3 3/4" x 1 1/2" and has lots of Brown Aragonite
with contrasting Yellow Calcite.
Septarians are commonly composed of a carbonate mineral such as Calcite,
a microcrystalline form of Silica as in Flint or Jasper, or an Iron Oxide
such as Hematite. These specimens are also known as a concretion which
is a type of sedimentary rock.
Septarians were formed millions of years ago by sediment forming around
a fossil to create a mud ball transforming the fossil into Calcite and Aragonite.

Here is a nice set of small Brazilian Agate slabs. Some are naturally
colored and some are color enhanced. This is a random grouping that
will resemble the picture and include five (5)
different pieces of nicely colored Agate slabs. Unfortunately, there
is NO choice in color or size, as we package
directly from the box. However, we do guarantee a nice selection.
This would make a great educational tool or a great project for the wire wrapper. |

Cathedral from Brazil. It measures 10 1/2" x 9 1/2" x 5 3/4" and the

Amethyst is a purple variety of Quartz often used as an ornament.
Upon exposure to heat, Amethyst generally becomes yellow, which some refer
to as Citrine or "burnt" Amethyst. It occurs in color from a light,
slightly pinkish violet to a deep grape purple. It is widely distributed
as a mineral, but fine, clear specimens that are suitable for cutting as ornamental
stones.

can be almost any color. The Sandstone beds often form highly visible
cliffs and are strongly identified with certain regions of the world.
