The October Rock & Gem Magazine article entitled “Captivating Find at The Carver Agate Field,” by John L. Carver and Bill Halepeska, has been published.
Unfortunately, it was published with significant factual errors which occurred in Rock & Gem editing of the original article submitted.
Rock & Gem has agreed to correct the editing errors in an upcoming issue. When the corrections are published by Rock & Gem, TexasAmethystAgate.com will post the article here together with the corrections.
In the meantime, the original submission to Rock & Gem has been posted on this site and can be viewed now.
Here’s the cover of the October 2020 issue of Rock & Gem and the first pages of the article, to give you a taste of things to come.
