Here be the famous (or infamous
if you prefer) Fairburn agates, most desired agates of all agate types
so far. They tend to come in a wide range of bold colors that made them
so desirable. The agates were named after Fairburn, South Dakota, and they
can be found throughtout the alluvial deposits south of Black Hills (the
source) in South Dakota all the way to Nebraska. They're so scattered by
erosion of the Black Hills over such large areas that they're quite hard
to find. Since the agates are already naturally polished, the Fairburn
agates in their natural appearanes tend to be more preferred than polished
ones.
Frankly, I thought that the prices for the Fairburns are way crazy. |
