• Agatized Algae (AA4)

    Notes specific to this specimen: A complete nodule featuring bullseye and bubblegum agate with a rich variety of textures and colors. The cracks are relics left over from when the original algal ball collapsed in on itself 165 million years ago, making this a very dynamic piece.

  • Kona Dolomite (KONA9)

    Notes specific to this specimen: This is an excellent sliced section showing multiple stromatolite colonies with distinct layers (laminae). The clear layering is unusual for this slightly metamorphosed material. It has a smooth back and a flat bottom so it stands up nicely.

  • Agatized Algae (AA8)

    Notes specific to this specimen: Strange shape with a variety of colors. This is one of the more unusual specimens we’ve seen – it contains relic cracks from the collapse of the original structure and a variety of textures and colors. Which end was up? We cannot tell on this one! Zoom in on the bubbly side – it’s awesome!

  • Sudbury Impactite (2)

    Notes specific to this specimen:
    You’ve never seen this before! Why? Because we are the only source for it. These striking Sudbury specimens are cut to reveal the lustrous nickel and copper ore crystals scattered across its dark magmatic matrix. The flashy metallic patches catch the light beautifully, highlighting this classic mega-impact site whose resulting nickel–copper ore made Sudbury world-famous. A rare and powerful authentic piece of Canadian geology from 1.8 billion years ago.

     

    We are offering only a very limited number of specimens of this material. Most will be in the form of obelisks because they show off the mineralization patterns very clearly. At present we are offering only two different size obelisks. This is the larger one. The photos here are typical of this size. But you may not get this exact piece! Please keep in mind there is variation from piece to piece and the one you get may differ slightly from what is seen here. However, these photos are a good representation of what you can expect. Of course, as always, we guarantee your satisfaction or your money back.
