Dwarves' Earth Treasures Museum:
Agates from New Zealand
 .
    I obtained those agates thru a trade with an Australian collector who collected them directly from New Zealand. The agates appear to be mostly clear with gray to white bandings and some of them come with mossy inclusions. Many of them are found in the rivers or creeks in the valleys of New Zealand. It is known that some outstanding agates with shadowing effects had been found from time to time.
