Dwarves' Earth Treasures Museum:
Berwyn Agates
Berwyn, Chubut Province, Argentina, South America
 .
    Those agates were found in an arid and windy area of Chubut Province, Argentina where the blown sand smoothened and polished the rough surface of the agate nodules ("Sandblasting") that it can be quite hard to grip them while grinding/polishing them. The typical agate is colorless and some agates have been found with  pink, red, orange and yellow colors sometimes in color combos. Known for their strong shadowing effect, the banding pattern of Berwyn agates are comparable to tthose of Lake Superior and Botswana agates.
