BCR318: Prairie Agate
Locality: South Dakota, USA
Selection: Rough.
Appearance: Handpicked from our collection. Prairie agates are among some of our favorite material for cutting and polishing projects; when polished the banding reveals bolder against the (at times), vibrant colored surface, without losing its wave like softness.
Please note: Display photos are shot under various light settings. Some photos are shot wet, to display a possible outcome, if polished.

Agates mostly occur as nodules in volcanic rocks or waters containing silica in solution 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.
