Lot of things keepng me busy that I couldn't get new agates for sale posted up. I apologize for that and I should be able to start posting the new agates in the July (will start scanning them on the last week of June). April 12, 2007: I have posted new specimens

I also have many of new agates (except Russian ones) listed above that I will be putting up for sale. Please look for them in June/July March 23, 2007: I got back from my mining expedition and I have obtained the agate & thunderegg roughs from the mines going by NeverAgain, Sky Blue, Torpedeo Beds, Sugar Bowl, JA's Little Wash, Tavenier and Baker Egg. I did not had a good luck with Dead Tree Site yet since I haven't been able to clear the rhyolite rubble off the thunderegg-bearing strata but I'll keep trying the next time I get there. February 12, 2007:
I will have to re-organize the galleries of agates
that are for sale and adding any new agates one type at a time over time.
That's going to take a long time to do since I have to do a lot of cutting
and polishing the new materials I obtained.

Online Rock Shop galleries such as Crater Agates, Polyhedroids, Iris Thundereggs

I also have updated the calendar of shows I plan to set up booths at. January 3, 2006: I have finally completed Formation of Agates & Thundereggs and it's listed under "Info on Agates" . Now anyone will have a chance to get some idea of how agates and thundereggs formed.

My scanner broke so I couldn't add anything new including any agates I plan to sell until I get new scanner. The scanner makes everything easier to do.
