Parcelas Agates
Cerro El Oregano area, northwest of Le Baron, Chihuahua Pro. Mexico

  The agates of Casas Grandes and Parcelas tend to be very similar in cut/polish appearance that they sometimes can be confused for each other.  What may distinguish the Casas Grandes Agates from Parcelas Agates is that Casas Grandes Agates look more "rusty" (yellowish) while Parcelas Agates come with more reddish dark skins.  The Parclas Agates are mostly white sometimes with lavendar to purplish or grayish hues. That's all I know about Parcelas Agates.
