.	Dwarves' Earth Treasures Online Rock Shop: Big Diggin Agates Sunshine (South of Deming), Luna Co., New Mexico	.

.    The Big Diggin agates are well known to the rockhounds for many decades, and featured in National Geographic Society magazines. The veinlike nodules tend to be found in large sizes, hence, the name, "Big Diggin Agates". All nodules are lined with characteristic calcite bands and only 2% to 5% nodules are found with solid and colorful agate, while the rest are filled with colorless agate, calcite and mainly quartz.  The typical colors are red, pink, yellow, black, light blue, gray and white and combo of bright red, black and white is considered a classic. A small percentage of solid agates contain colorful plume and moss structures, coming from one of Lindsburg's "lost pits" somewhere around the main Big Diggin site. The main site is owned Deming Rock & Gem Club and is open only to the club-sponsored field trips, weather permitting. Updated July 2009, new specimen have 2009y in their code names..
