    There is actually a few spots less than a mile from the creek you can find some gorgeous Carnelian both in solid crystaline form by itself and mixed with other types of chalcedony as some amazing agates.

    Can someone help me understand what it means to be “agatized”? What is it that differentiates it from other petrified wood? I find so much up here in Northern Arizona, but I’m so ignorant as to what I’m looking at. Also, what are occlusions? I hear that term thrown around by lapidaries.

    How is this fire opal? I live in a border town between Idaho and Washington. It looks like the typical agate I would find. They're everywhere... sort of. If you know where to go looking I guess. Just curious because if it is, then I have tons of fire opal.

    • @RockHoundQuest
      @RockHoundQuest 3 місяці тому

      The easiest way to tell is a hardness test. Fire opal is very soft and glass like. Red agate or carnelian are a type of chalcedony, which is very hard and heavy. Fire opal is so light that it almost feels like plastic. Finally, this came from a fire opal mine.

    I dont get the whole "night dig" thing. Slips, trips, and falls are more commonplace; constantly working in the shadows of your lights, and with reduced overall light to see.

    • @RockHoundQuest
      @RockHoundQuest 3 місяці тому

      It's definitely not ideal to dig at night. This particular time I was really excited but arrived late. I only planned to poke around for 5 or 10 minutes. Instead, I got incredibly lucky and found something amazing almost instantly. It was the first place I looked! The next day we dug for around 8 hours but didn't find anything nearly as good.
