Dwarves Earth Treasures: Lake Superior Agates from Minnesota

Lake Superior Agates
from Minnesota

So many Lake Superior Agates including large ones are found in the gravel pits and rivers in the eastern Minnesota and western Wisconsin. The source of the agates is apparently from under Lake Superior that had been gorged out by ancient glaciers before depositing them throughout several Midwest States. Some are found along the beaches of Minnesota and Wisconsin as rounded forms. Strong red, brown and gray colors and potato shapes are the characteristics of the agates coming from Minnesota.
