The banding and the patterns that the beautiful ribbons of chalcedony that flow over them all! And those fire agates are really gorgeous! So many! And some really big ones! Wow! And again julie, you out did yourself on the rock reveal! Awesome video! Thanks Brian and Julie!💕

      Thank you very much Lisa! We were quite surprised by the variety we found. Every time Brian cut a rock and I hear him hooting… I knew it was going to be a good one.😂 I was hoping the rock reveal wouldn’t be too long that people wouldn’t get bored.😂 BTW, Did Ken share with you the pictures he took of the agate you sent to him….🤯🤯 Mindblowing!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼❤️❤️ I made one of them my background on my laptop!😄

      @AZRockhoundExpeditions I saw it! Wasn't it amazing!?! What a mind-blowingly beautiful agate anyways, but under the microscope, it gets even better! All the rocks you guys find, are like that! It's like biting into a chocolate bar,and finding a layer of the yummiest filling, be it peanut butter or something else we weren't expecting, making that the best chocolate bar ever!

    We have had fun at round mountain several times. We love the mix of white and brown red lines when cut. Beautiful pendants.😊
    Your lighting and motion on the reveals is stunning. Super job.
    The black hills are fun too, but we perfer round mountain for the white swirley cuts that you get. Heep having fun. Stay healthy and safe.😷⚒🤗

      Thank you! I think we prefer Round Mountain as well. We were only at Black hills for about 1 1/2 hours, but spent 3 days exploring Round Mountain. The white feathers and whisps in the agates are so pretty.🤩

I knew it was going to be good when I mistook the 1st opening guitar chord for being "Crazy on You" by Heart. 😅 Well it is the exact same chord!

    I went to the Black Hills Rockhound Area earlier this year in March. I did Payson in August. I suspected this had to be somewhere near Black Hills because it’s also fire agate. I will have to check out this area next time.
