Muggin Mtns Thundereggs
Muggin Mtns, Yuma County, Arizona
   Somewhere in the Muggins Mountains have produced very large reddish brown aphantic thundereggs usually with narrow agate cores. Often, the rhyolite shells have to be broken in order to extract narrow agate cores. The agates are dark colored and tend to contain brown to yellow (sometimes green) moss-like and plume inclusions. Those with very obvious plume structures are desired from that location for lapidary purposes.
