These came from a mine on private property located here: 45.194826 -108.188788 These fluoresce under UV-C (shortwave blacklights) just like bear canyon agates. I have heard that the ranch these were being mined on got upset at the miners behaving poorly and kicked them off and never let anybody mine them again.
I can't even imagine how much it would cost to ship a big box of rocks! That alone is impressive. But, wowza! These babies are gorgeous. That red druzy is amazing. What wonderfully generous gift. Eager to see more.
I have never said WOW!!! So many times in the span of 18 minutes. I’ve never heard of a Dryhead agate, they are GORGEOUS!! Thanks for furthering my knowledge, and thank you to the kind person who gave the agates to you so we could all see these beauties! 😃👍👍
OMG absolutely stunning Theo... Nature's finest beauty and mind blowing in its creation. To hold something so aged , real and inanimate and yet brings about life , beauty, magic, science and the want to learn more ! A million thoughts and feelings from what is essentially a rock/stone - our earths element , in our galaxy in our universe! A rock here millions of years before we knew it a rock ,probably kicked about my dinosaurs and now in your possession! Theo thank you for sharing as always , do let's us know if you intend to share that magic in your store of course lol x . x
Just because they were a gift and i truly can not get any more once they are gone, i don't think i will be selling any, raw at least; i will definitely sell some rings, pendants, and slabs from them but i will likely be guiltily hoarding them a bit which i do apologize for😅
Amazing agates! I had never seen or heard of dryhead agates before so thank you for teaching me something new and for sharing such beauty! Whoever sent that to you not only is generous but made you happy and all of us viewing this video.
I feel very fortunate to have recieved so many! And i will definitely be making more videos with them!😄 there will definitely be some pendants and rings being made from them and once my new saw is up and running, we will absolutely be doing some slabbing on some of those big pieces!😄
We are so happy for you. Thank you so much for sharing the Dryhead Agates. They are beautiful and will make some wonderful jewelry. We enjoy the videos in which you craft so many exciting things from stone, wood and other sources. We look forward to seeing what you do with these agates.
Thank you so much!😄 i have some very cool projects in the works that i will hopefully be finishing up soon, but i will absolutely be making some more stuff with these amazing agates! Thanks so much for watching😄
Those were some of the most beautiful agates I have ever seen. I love the crystals too. You have some amazing friends. You do some amazing work and creations with your rocks and so much more. You are very talented thats for sure. Thanks for sharing.
Sure hope you have recovered quickly to get out there and find some cool rock 😊 never had back surgery but many leg surgeries so I know the itch . Take care 💛
Wow that's what you call falling into a "gold" mine. Very impressive. I am lucky enough to have a couple specimens but just wow. I can't wait to see some of your finished pieces.
They are amazing! Once the saw is up and running, we are absolutely going to be making some more videos of slabbing some big ones, and of course some cabbing👍
Beautiful pieces! Definitely one of the USA’s top agate types. So very awesome of the person who sent them to you. Incredible agates from a bygone era. Thanks for sharing
On your drop saw, get a piece of 1/2” or thicker rubber stall mat. Keeps the rock from moving. I even know a few people that have used the rubber matting inside the rock vice to get a enter grip on the rock. If interested let me know. I have some pieces I can rough cut to fit into a box for you.
Dude Theo, I am seriously enamoured with these unique rare agate and druse pieces. Ughh! How awesome is it to get to work with that material. And I love how the video is like a showcase of all the things to do with the different pieces. Just rad mate, I loved it. I don’t get to watch as much rock videos as I would like but this had me the whole way.
@@Rookie_Rockounding i still can't believe it! It is just some phenomenal material, i would feel very fortunate to own even one of these things, so having a box full of them is just insane! And yeah kate helped me out big time! I was doing all of my rock cutting on a 7" tile saw so i am so stoked to do some slabbing with this thing! And thanks man!😄 that seriously means a lot coming from you! You have been one of my biggest inspirations when it comes to my channel, so for a small channel like mine to get a comment from THE Rookie Rockhounding is just too awesome!😄
Unreal. Im speechless at how cool those are. The colors are intense!!! They actually remind me of the Mexican crazy lace agates quite a bit. Dont you think?
For some reason, I think Theo learn this stuff from his family, and his dad had this stuff and sent it to him to help him out with his shop/channel. Or maybe I’m drunk? Either way, such beautiful pieces. Your awesome brother. You’re truly good at what you do. We learn a lot from you.
These agates are so amazing. Seeing these helps me to form the top end of the quality curve, forming ideals that you always hold someplace in your thoughts when you're turning over rocks, always hoping for the ideal. It's like occassionally catching a really amazing fish. Not that a smaller or less perfect fish will ever disappoint you, or that you only want to catch big fish. But occassionally, when you do, it is REALLY special because it fulfills the ideal.
Wow those are so beautiful! Really awesome of the person who sent them to you and also really awesome of you to share them with all of us! They are def some of the prettiest agates I've seen! The one with all the different colored druzy sections was so pretty but honestly picking a favorite out of those would be impossible!! Hope to see a follow up video of them polished and finished pieces from them.
Wow!!!!!! We know what you will be working with on snow days this winter. And I agree I would hoard most of it myself. Really amazing gift. Thanks so much for sharing.
WOW!!! Some of the best dryheads I’ve seen. So dang lucky. I have a few small slabs I got from someone but they are not on the level of some of those in this video. Amazing.
This one just popped up. Oh my goodness!!!! GORGEOUS 😍🥰 I have never said wow so much in my life lol Oh hay, you have your new saw! Do you this you can cut some of the bigger ones now???? Something to think about 😃🤔❤️
Its norine again.. just gorgeous rocks ..wow..I use my son name ..bless you n those rocks..n oh katiedid your so nice to give him such handy things.way to help each other out
Well, this video explains a lot... Just this past week-end I found a 20 lb box o'rocks at an estate sale for $5. It had 6 pcs. of raw Dryhead Agate, along with Coldwater and Lake Superior Agates, and several other specimens that I need to research. The Dryhead Agates were the reason I bought the box, not knowing exactly what they were, only that I didn't have any agates like them in my collection. In fact, I already have one marked for slab & cab. lol (Don't know what it is, but, damn it, I'm makin' jewelry out of it 🤣👍.) KatyDoes Rock... Have fun with the "new" saw. Thanks for sharing. Good Luck, Have Fun, and Keep on Houndin'... new sub... Steve.
Wow. What a fantasical collection! What kind of acid have you been using? I tried both vinegar and oxalic acid to clean up druzy pockets on a collection of Dryheads. Both worked, to differing degrees. Those black and red druzy pockets are just killer! I have none of those colors, but I've got a number of them with salmon and orange druzy, and, like you found, one with very pale purple amethyst. I enjoy cutting cabochons with druzy pockets , and Dryheads provide lots of opportunities for those unique cabs.
Wow, I have never seen anything like it and you have specimen after specimen. The red and blackish druzy, the quartz crystals, it is hard not to feel as if these things are magical
Those are beautiful the person who send those rocks are very generous , wonder jow you polish do something to those pieces , by the way the small piece that you polish is amazing.
I would call that Volunteer Agate for the University of Tennessee. First time I've seen an agate in school colors! Really beautiful orange and white! GoVols!
I love your videos so much. I am a beginner I've sat down at my saw three times now and watching your videos as helped me and given me so many ideas especially this one because I have a lot of Missouri druzy with so much agate in it. And I had no idea about the muriatic acid on agate. I've been using iron out on some of my geodes but would muriatic acid work better for me for the druzy agate I don't know the exact terminology for the name of what I have because I have a bunch.
Those agates are beautiful, I wished I could have them but I know the cost of shipping would be too much as I'm from Australia, I still love watching your video, just to look at all the amazing crystals you have
Wooowwwwww. Some are def nicer than others but really, a rock is just a rock .. untill today...... .. . stumbling over my tongue. Thanks a lot theo... I was at a nice comfortable spot in my rock collection... Now back to the search!!! Seriously thanks for ur vids always informative and a bit dif from most!!!! Emily
Find, slab, dip, rinse, polish, dance for joy, repeat. Thanks for sharing. Be safe and stay healthy 😷⚒

Well I don’t think I’ve seen anything more incredible when it comes to agates. Absolutely amazing!
They are truly something special!😄
@@TheoKellison I bet one of those dryhead agates would make beautiful wedding and/or engagement ring

Absolutely amazing! There are no words...well, a lot of swear words come to mind. F***ing incredible!! Congrats on the saw, too! Thanks for sharing!!
That is beyond wow!!! I just had back surgery and can’t wait to get out and rocks like that make the rockhounding itch much harder to take.
I definitely agree with that!😄 i hope you get after some true beauties once spring finally shows up!
Sure hope you have recovered quickly to get out there and find some cool rock 😊 never had back surgery but many leg surgeries so I know the itch . Take care 💛

Holy guacamole! I was actually gasping at the beauty of these agates! What a generous gift!
What happy bright colors!! Amazing!! You are well worth it, I am sure the Gods will be pleased with what you do with them! So pretty!!!!
Unreal. Im speechless at how cool those are. The colors are intense!!! They actually remind me of the Mexican crazy lace agates quite a bit. Dont you think?
I totally agree with that! The texture especially is extremely similar to mexican lace; they are not waxy and lustrous like most agates
@@TheoKellison cant wait to see all the cool things you gonna make out of those. Those are museum quality!!!!!
For some reason, I think Theo learn this stuff from his family, and his dad had this stuff and sent it to him to help him out with his shop/channel.
Or maybe I’m drunk?
Either way, such beautiful pieces.
Your awesome brother.
You’re truly good at what you do. We learn a lot from you.
Just incredible! Thank you Theo for the video. Looking forward to more with these precious agates
Amazing! The patterns make me think of the psychedelic patterns of the 1960s.
OMG Absolutely the most impressive agate I have ever seen. You lucky dog. Stay safe and havagudun Theo.
