Apples have been harvested, the garden harvest is nearly complete, and here is a new harvest of Carver Agates cut this Summer of 2024.
Rock #5720
Rock #5720 shows a radiating sagenitic formation on the outer surface of a
translucent nodule from the “Deep Pit” formation featured in Rock and Gem Magazine.
Rock #5694
The yellow crystalline structures seen in this agate nodule are mind boggling. See enlarged photo below.
Rock #5694 Enlarged
I have no idea how or what formed these yellow sheet like structures. They are very curious indeed.
Rock #5698
This red carnelian agate nodule with white radiating formations is related
structurally to the radiating pattern seen in Rock #5720, seen up above.
Both contain star bursts, but not formed from the same mineral material.
Rock #5698 Enlarged
Rock #5720 is probably an iron, while the white starburst in Rock #5698 shown here is not.
Rock #5700
This stone has a floater in the center of a nearly transparent citrine nodule,
which you can see in the detail below.

nodule with a tiny vug or geode center.
