AG302 Deming Agate

AG302 Deming Agate

$125.00

Here is a great addition to your office or home. This is a select Deming Agate from New Mexico specimen.  The lovely specimen measures 9 1/8″ x 3 3/8″ x 8 3/8″ tall with an irregular shape and has a very pretty color with neat banding in a great design. This neat specimen was nicely cut and polished on the front side here at the Rock Shed leaving the rest in its natural rough state. It also will fluoresce under a LW/UV light as seen in the last photo. Something very different for the collector or the gift giver. 
Availability: single piece, exclusive.

Description

Deming Agate, for Deming, New Mexico, generally thunder eggs, has been described as, vein and nodular agate with fortification, moss, dendritic, flame, and orbicular patterns. Some specimens will contain sagenite needle inclusions.

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.
