4 LB BLUE AGATE Discovered in Last Rock Hunt of 2024

- CHECK OUT THIS 4 lb. blue agate! Kate squeezed in one last rockhounding adventure before the end of the year - and it was amazing! Because the river was very low, rocks have been uncovered that couldn't be seen before - including a fantastic 4 pound agate! In this video, Kate finds the rocks, cuts them into slabs, and for some, even prepares cabochons to expose the beauty within. You'll see why Kate says the Yellowstone River has so many beautiful rocks!

I absolutely love how you show the progression of the rock from its raw state to how you transform them into beautiful pieces. It is so enjoyable to see. Thank you for taking us along on your journey.
I'm glad you like it!
What a good hunt. I’m at the Lions game hunting for Mr. Gibbs myself. 😂😂❤ have a great week. See you next Sunday, love ❤
Thanks, DownriverRocks! Happy hunting. :)
Excellent blue!!
Nice work on those cabs, they look great!
That stromatalite cab is unique!!
Thanks so much! I'm working on the cab thing. :)
Holy cow that's a big beautiful agate
Thanks - I think so too!
3:48 What a beautiful and unique cabachon Kate! That's a 10! Didn't realize that a stromatolite would make such a cool cab! Thanks for the river hunt!
Yep, that's why I like stromatalites :)
I loved how you found the rock then immediately showed the stages of it from clean to stabbed to a polished piece. That is really great!
Thanks! It's a lot of work, but I hope to do more of it.
Glad mother nature gave you a break to get that extra hounding in on the river ..
Beautiful finds...
Finding that big one was a huge surprise, especially on that beach!
Love the things translucent slabs you cut too🎉
Thanks!
Definitely probably - that was cute. Great finds. Beautiful cutting & polishing. Thank you for the adventure 😊
LOL, sometimes I can't believe the things that come out of my mouth.
Love your cabs!
Thanks!
Love the agate!
Me too!
Beautiful Jasper!
Thank you!

Big ol hard blobs of beauty. (Remember “the blob 1935?).
I do! Well, not the FIRST time around. :)
Rocks upon rocks upon rocks out there! ☺ You found some great stuff out there, Kate!
There are many, many rocks along the river - and most of them are beautiful.
Great hunt. ❤Thx for the video 💕
Thank you too!
Beautiful rocks!!
Thanks!
That big blue agate was gorgeous! What an incredible find at this time of year! And that stromatolite was amazing! It was huge! I kept telling the TV, you better take that with you! I'm glad you did! That did my heart good! Lol! What a great last hunt and that agate was worth it all! Fantastic find! And the cab you made from that first cut, was just amazing! I love the way you isolated that ring! Just beautiful! Thanks for sharing! ❤
I was amazed, particularly since this particular location is hit pretty hard.
So much fun to watch! You must have been freezing! I too, love that you show the rocks how you find them, washed, cut, then polished. So very very cool. Happy New Year!
I'm so glad!
I thought stromatolites were beautiful but I never knew they made such beautiful cabs!! I loved the Caroma scooter video. I'm saving up for one 😀
breathtaking views I love the progression videos. Great editing
Thanks so much!
You have a wonderful eye - the cabs and slices you make are beautiful! I'm so glad Taylor suggested we check out your site.
I'm glad you like them! Taylor is a great person.
hi rockhunter! a big hug from Argentina, thanks for the video!!
A big hug back!
Nice hunt Kate. I would have loved to have found a big stromat like that. It’s killer. Looks like you’ve started making cabs and doing very well. Nice!
It's really awesome. I'm working on my technique, but moving forward!
Nice finds.👍👍
Thank you!
Hey you stealing my galaxy stones????? Great video!
I think there's enough for everyone! ;)

Thank you, Katrina.
Happy 2025 to you, Jim and the family. Love that you do short Grab Slab Cab in the vids. Cabs are looking goooood! KEEP ON DOIN'
Thank you so much!
Still my favorite RUclipsr... To think a year ago I had no idea and was looking for Montana agates from Katydid show in a Alabama creek 😂
It took a little while to realize the answer was in the name.😂
I have come so far now. We have so many beautiful rocks in Alabama. I've lost so much weight walking around the creeks and rivers.
From size 48 to a cool 34...😊
You still have the very best agates in the world Katie... We love your channel so much.
Learning something new every time I watch.
Nice cabochon..
I finally learned to edit 😂
Your skills are unmatched.
Hope you had a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 🎊
Awww, thanks, Vernon. :) I'm glad you have beautiful rocks where you are too - you deserve it.
Dziękuję za nowy film, super minerały ❤
:)
Ooooh that agate is beautiful!!
It is!
I also admire your strength! You pick up and bring home some pretty hefty finds! I would do the same as I enjoy the tiny and the large too ;-)
Ha, I always roll my eyes when I find something big - it's like, "Oh, no, now I have to carry that home!" :D
Nice Cabs. Can see the difference in yours after visiting HPL !!
I'm still working on it, but yes, I'm really excited with what I learned!
Thanks for asking us along!
Thanks for joining me!
That was your best video all year for me. Beautiful rocks!
Thank you. :)
Jasp agate!
Lots. :)
Have you ever hiked up to the sources of those agates ?
I'm not sure, but I do believe that smaller "granite" is a jasper. Granite would have more feldspar and biotite in it. Gorgeous no matter which it turns out to be. I really enjoy your videos, especially when you splice together the finding, then cutting, shaping and polishing....even if you only get the chance to clean the find up and show it from home, you are awesome to do so!
Thank you, Julie! That's great feedback.
Nice stromatalyte!
Glad you think so!
Get outta here with your beautiful giant agates!!! 😆
:D
Your first cut looks like a horse and on the right looks like a horse and rider and possibly a 3rd horse. In the abstract I mean. I’d buy it, just the 1 slab

I thoroughly understand - but be aware that not everyone is lining up to cheer here in the US.
@@KatyDidRocks Thank you for that. I really enjoyed your channel.
Why with this terrible KI-Voice?
Hi. The initial weird voice sound comes from trying to remove the wind noise. The first clip is the worst, I think. Thanks for stopping by!
@@KatyDidRocks please, your welcome
Happy New Year GLAD 👀 U IN 🪖
