Many years ago, my son and me picked up stones on the beach. ( in Goa, India). I didn't know anything about it. I kept it because I like decorating. Put stones in pots and vases. Today, its thrill to look at it. Some agates some jasper's. But it still looks pretty in pots and vases. Thanks to your video, I'm learning a lot. It's a fascinating thing. For those who have the chance of having this as a hobby, it's great. Have fun , collecting the pretty gifts from nature. Good health to all. Wish you all the very best.
Omg 😮 thank you for sharing your wonderful video on how to identify precious stones I’m definitely going to keep an eye out once I’m back home Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 “Gracias”👍🙏👏👏👏🇵🇷🇵🇷😍😍 , I enjoyed watching you picking up these stones like a huge kid 🧒 in a candy store .
Oh, wish you could send some to me. Loved watching this video. And felt like picking up all the beautiful coloured ones. That's a super collection. Cheers
Thank you for sharing 🤗 lived in Washington my entire life and always seen these rocks and sea glasses. Just never knew till now how to create. I’m actually going to the shore memorial weekend! Bringing a bucket! Hope I can ask u questions on how to polish them and prep them. Thank you so much
@@BackYardGardeningTip Ha ha. Do what I do. I load up the pack with rocks and then hand it to my friend and tell him it's full of beer, and he will carry it to the car for you.
@@saltpepperketchup7082 HaHa... I don't have any friends... well ones who are willing to walk as long and as far as I do. Not even my wife will walk with me unless it's a place I can't find rocks. :)
Believe it or not, most of the agates I find are in bags of river rock and pebbles that you find in any garden center. I usually get my bags from Wal-Mart because it's the closet to me and they are only $3.99 a 40 pound bag! You do have to wash all the rock but I find so many that it is a joy to sit out on a nice sunny day, on my rolling cart, sit down with the hose and wash the rocks, in the bags they come in. Just stick the hose in the bag ( all the bags have tiny holes in them ) rinse them, the water drains out through the tiny holes and just start picking. Some of them are huge in the bag of river rocks but in the river pebbles they are small. Lots of fun and I have a huge collection! When we were vacationing in the Smokey Mountains, my husband and I go into rivers and streams and I found a near perfect 3-4 pound river agate, smooth from being tumbled down the river. Yellow in color and when you shine a flashlight through it, it's translucent through most of it and opaque in the middle, because it is so huge! Enjoyed your video. Wish we had rocky beaches here on the East Coast but the ones we do have are much too far for this old girl, to get to. Have a great time agate hunting! 😉😊
I’m your typical Myrtle beach guy, so where are rocky beaches in the east to find rocks for tumbling. I’m new to tumbling and your idea of rocks from wal-mart is genius since it is brought in...never thought of that! Thanks!
Great video!!! They all looked so pretty, I would have taken the whole beach with me. I just found a few stones in my backyard but I don't know how to classify them 😅 I want to know if they are crystals to use for my meditation or just plain rocks
I find my best days to hunt for agates to be days with some mist and slight rain. The moisture on the agates only causes them to stand out with greater brilliance compared to the surrounding dull quartz, basalt or jasper.
If I lived near a beach like these (especially the pebble beaches) I would be bringing buckets of interesting rocks home each time. Definitely would have to learn the art of wire wrapping. Sadly I live several hours away from the shore.
Beautiful...I love rocks. I just subscribed to your channel. We dont have any rocks where I live. Do you sell small, pendant size? I love the ones that are red in color.
We have been creating sea glass earrings and necklaces for about a year now. Our etsy.com store is "pnwbeachtreasures" - for now we only have sea glass related jewelry but would like to start using some of our agates. Thanks for the comments.
Wish I could come across such a place! Here in Finland I only know of some amethyst mines that allow you to come see them, but they're all the way in Lapland, and you couldn't go looking for nice things yourself even there. I've found a few nice things on roadsides and fields but that's it. Maybe one day!
I live in Hawaii and unfortunately we do not have any of these beautiful stones. Do you sell any? I would love to have a few! I wish I could go on the beach and get some myself!
We walked to the tip of Damon point and it was just sand! No rock.. Tides don’t seem to change the outcome. Any advance finding the good gravel beds out there these days?
The tides during the year bring in various amounts of sand. Some months there are more gravel beds exposed. I enjoy going out during the Winter months when the storms have raked the beach and brought new stones up on the beach.
I will have to go through my collection and see if I have any agates and when I am out tomorrow I will be looking for these specifically. Thanks for the great video.
Тим!! Ничего не поняла, бо языка не знаю, но агаты очень красивые!!!! Мой камень по гороскопу, и другие камни очень красивы!!! А еще есть красота такая называется- чароит- редок и чрезвычайно красив!!
Спасибо за добрый комментарий. Может быть, вы найдете программу Google, которая переведет мой английский на русский для вас. Продолжайте искать красивые камни. Бог создал их для нас, чтобы они наслаждались!
We find geodes here in Ky they are beautiful I’m a rock hound❤️ I’ve never found an agate here but I believe we have them. Most common in my area are blue and expensive
ha i thought you said Dana Point , CA lol i was like breathing fire its like a preservation you can visit but must not disturb environment beautiful shells crystals agates gems everything love that place its a shame to see how much we destroy when you go past the boundary line and literately there is nothing but thrash and beer caps .
I love agate. Here, in the state of Maryland, these agates don't exist - at least none that I have found. However, I do find a lot of agatized coral called Favosites that come in translucent colors, like what you show here, but with with honeycombs. One day I cam going to polish up my collection, or make some jewelry out of it.
I looked up your area on the Internet and there are Agates in the Gurasada, Romania area. The Mures Vally is reported to have agates also. Let me know if you find some in your country!
well yes Tim they are , but they aren't :) , they are dull in color like brown etc...and don't look like agates to me :) .. I like colors and patterns so no chance for me ...and yes in north is the best way to find some stones ..to bad is so far from my town ..Brasov ! ,I love stones and I collect them since I was a kid ..I'm 31 now and I want to build a lapidary machine to cut some agates and polish them as a hobby ..the sad part is I have to buy them from internet ...and on ebay from US to Romania I pay more for the shipment then the stone itself ! :) , have a good day and I will wait more videos , well done cya
Mr.Tim blair we have a similar beach.in.Costa Rica in peninsula of Nicoya.the place are exclusivity in my Contry and when.i saw.your Wonderfull report .always i.remenber my.beach in.Cos ta Rica called Barco.Quebrado .is a mate Rial.easy for polish and tum bling for making jewelry.
I've been trying to figure where ring have where may came from and unsure if found coast in California area.. or jeweler once had and possible if around Montana and tree moss or what kind agate. very many different agate stones.
NUNCA VI NADA PARECIDO COM ESSAS PEDRAS !!! TÔ APAIXONADA POR ELAS!!! SANTO DEUS COMO EU QUERIA UMA VERMELHA, VINHO AZUL VERDE TRANSPARENTE ETC... UMA DE CADA COR QUE ESTÁ NAQUELA PRAIA!!! QUE LINDASSSSSS! PARABÉNS TIM!!!
I have many large pieces and many smaller ... we are going to drill some of the smaller pieces in their raw state and make earrings out of them. Some of the larger agates will be tumbled in my rock tumbler. Then I will wire wrap them as pendents and make a necklace. see our wire wrapped sea glass and drilled earring sets on our etsy store. Our etsy store is called "pnwbeachtreasures."
You could clean them pack them nicely and sell them online. For the most people who don't go to the beach and they'd love to have them as collectibles or make nice jewelry out of them☺
now pretty much at the end of my life I like seeing young people getting out there. I was a maniac beyond belief. I would go out south of newport oregon in almost hurricane winds well before daybreak to catch the low tide with lantern. as I look back now I cant believe i did it. But I have good agates.
Damon Beach is on the north side of Grays Harbor, Washington state, USA. Rialto Beach is north of there. Joyce beach is still further north on the Strait of Jaun de Fuca.
We are in presently making sea glass jewelry and want to start drilling some of the agates for necklaces and earrings. I'd like to keep them in their raw form as found on the beach. I believe they are beautiful in their original form and would make a nice presentation on a necklace. see our Etsy.com store... pnwbeachtreasures to see what we've done so far with sea glass.
Yes.. all agates have rings. Agates are really just Chalcedony that is formed out of silica that has seeped into air pockets or crevices in the rock. The silica hardens and forms the translucent rock called Chalcedony. When the silica has different chemicals and forms layers over the many years ... rings form. That's when you have agates. The rings or layers are what makes agate chalcedony unique. So, when you find on the beach a chunk of Chalcedony with rings it is an agate. Without rings with only a smooth translucent appearance you only have Chalcedony.
most rocks can be cut using a rock saw. Agates have been polished, cut and shaped for years to create great displays in jewelry settings, bowls or even larger pieces for book ends on a shelf.

Olá Aida Iris, estou feliz que você tenha gostado do meu vídeo. Eu gosto de encontrar as pedras coloridas e especialmente os vermelhos. Eu acho algumas ágatas de cor vermelha, mas a maioria das rochas vermelhas que eu encontro em algumas das minhas praias favoritas são feitas de jaspe. Tenho certeza de que você pode encontrar um belo jaspe em seu país. Tenha um bom tempo caçando rochas! Bênçãos, Tim Blair

How do you know the agates from the other beautiful stones? I've never been to the west coast but this would be quite an incentive for me as I love "gems".
agates are very unique rock formations that are washed down rivers into water ways and out to sea. They are found washed up on beaches and have a very unique appearance compared to other quartz rocks or basalt. Quartz is a crystaline rock formation with a somewhat opaque appearance. Agates are much clearer and almost look like glass with a textured surface appearance. The agate is typically formed inside a volcanic type rock air pocket or fissure. A silica substance seeps into the air pocket and slowly forms layers of rock over time. This rock formation becomes a layered geode with visible banding inside the clear rock. When you pick up an agate on the beach you can typically see a rough surface that portrays the interior of the host rock that formed it. The agate really stands out on the beach as it glows in the sunlight against the other dull colored quartz, red jasper or darker basalt rock. They truly are semi precious jewels deposited on most beaches awaiting our discovery! more info on my web page pnwbeachcombing.com look on the "rocks" page with details about agates. Wherever you find rock bed deposits on river banks, lake beaches or the East Coast beaches you should find agates!
Many years ago, my son and me picked up stones on the beach. ( in Goa, India).
I didn't know anything about it.
I kept it because I like decorating. Put stones in pots and vases. Today, its thrill to look at it. Some agates some jasper's.

I love how you hover and pause a moment to give us a chance to scan the beach and to see if you pick up what catches our eye. Well done!
Yeah I like that too.

Love this video! I have picked up agates on the beach while shell hunting! I had no idea they were agates until now!!!!! Thank You!
Such awesome pieces, they really stand out. The rain makes all of them look good enough to take home. Such a beautiful beach, thanks for sharing 👍🏼

How do you not want to pick up every rock. I do! Lovely
HaHaHa... I do want to pick up every rock on the beach but I stop when my legs start to buckle from the weight in my backpack.

I Found a Carnelian Agate in AZ Over the Weekend With Sum Gold n a Fossil inside...Awsum Video 👍🏻🤠🇺🇸

Amazing very amazing. Very nice 👌
Well done good job 💎
WA. Looks like a great place to find all kinds of agates! Fun, fun ,fun even as the rain comes down!
I find my best days to hunt for agates to be days with some mist and slight rain. The moisture on the agates only causes them to stand out with greater brilliance compared to the surrounding dull quartz, basalt or jasper.
Great video. I live out here and I’ve found a lot of agates and some obsidian as well.
Thank you for sharing this lovely agates. Hope I have a driving license but I am scare to drive a car. I hope I have a friend can ride me there...LOL
Agate, agate, agate, jasper.... my precious. Every inner voice of a rock hound, stone variation of course!
Thank u for the video. I thought I was crazy collecting colorful pebbles.
If I lived near a beach like these (especially the pebble beaches) I would be bringing buckets of interesting rocks home each time. Definitely would have to learn the art of wire wrapping. Sadly I live several hours away from the shore.
Beautiful, how can I tell what’s that kind of gemstone if I see them, any advice?
Nice but I think some of them gaper also cetrine stone
I've always found these agates in rockbeds and the vast majority of them are unbanded. I finally know them now!
Wow. I wish i was there. Such an adventure. I want the rocks Gigmaster. So many beauties.
How can you tell if they're agate? I'm new collecting rocks and crystals
Just uploaded a new video just for you to explain the differences between agates and other stones on the beach. It's my newest video, only a week old.
Gato negro
They have a transparent look to them.
At 2:00 did you see the shark tooth in the background, right behind where he's holding up the agate?
Shirley Barrett...wow good eye!
Yeah he should of picked it up, he probably did
Yep

Very very nice videos and stone sir ji
Beautiful I love this I'm new here really enjoying this
Hi

You find an agate - what do you DO with it? Can you make jewelry out of it?
ما فاءدة هذا الحجر ..هل هو للزينه فقط...ام هناك فواءد اخرى ومااهم اسراره
well that looks like a GREAT day !!
Wow thats a lot of agate !
How far do you walk down before you start searching?
I will have to go through my collection and see if I have any agates and when I am out tomorrow I will be looking for these specifically. Thanks for the great video.

question what process is taken to make an agate worth money?
I have many large pieces and many smaller ... we are going to drill some of the smaller pieces in their raw state and make earrings out of them. Some of the larger agates will be tumbled in my rock tumbler. Then I will wire wrap them as pendents and make a necklace. see our wire wrapped sea glass and drilled earring sets on our etsy store. Our etsy store is called "pnwbeachtreasures."
thanks for the info
How do i recognize agate? What is agate? What can i do with agate? Is it a precious valuable stone?
If it was very very valuable in money it would not be easy to find on the beach
Waw,,,i love that beach....
Nice video
What do you do with your agates? Do they have any value? If so how do I put a value to the ones I've found?
haynerbass they aren’t all that valueable
You could clean them pack them nicely and sell them online. For the most people who don't go to the beach and they'd love to have them as collectibles or make nice jewelry out of them☺

Damon Beach is on the north side of Grays Harbor, Washington state, USA. Rialto Beach is north of there. Joyce beach is still further north on the Strait of Jaun de Fuca.
I like the video the stone is beautiful
Do you tumble your agates? If so do you have any video of finished product
We are in presently making sea glass jewelry and want to start drilling some of the agates for necklaces and earrings. I'd like to keep them in their raw form as found on the beach.

I found a nice agate arrowhead awhile back in battleground WA
Do all agates have rings?
Yes.. all agates have rings. Agates are really just Chalcedony that is formed out of silica that has seeped into air pockets or crevices in the rock. The silica hardens and forms the translucent rock called Chalcedony. When the silica has different chemicals and forms layers over the many years ... rings form. That's when you have agates. The rings or layers are what makes agate chalcedony unique. So, when you find on the beach a chunk of Chalcedony with rings it is an agate. Without rings with only a smooth translucent appearance you only have Chalcedony.
What beach is it? I would love to come to the PNW to agate hunt!!
wow that is cool
is there a way to cut through agate or any type of rock?
most rocks can be cut using a rock saw. Agates have been polished, cut and shaped for years to create great displays in jewelry settings, bowls or even larger pieces for book ends on a shelf.
It's possible... I've never tried it but you could give it a go. See if it works.
Poison Ivy , lapidary, diamond blades or the old way, wet and dry abrasive paper

Wow i wish i was this lucky when i went rock hounding
And what will you do with all those agates besides own them?
Is that worth anything or just a hobby
Hmmm so how much it worth? thanks

How much of this type of stone prise please tell me

They are found washed up on beaches and have a very unique appearance compared to other quartz rocks or basalt. Quartz is a crystaline rock formation with a somewhat opaque appearance. Agates are much clearer and almost look like glass with a textured surface appearance. The agate is typically formed inside a volcanic type rock air pocket or fissure. A silica substance seeps into the air pocket and slowly forms layers of rock over time. This rock formation becomes a layered geode with visible banding inside the clear rock. When you pick up an agate on the beach you can typically see a rough surface that portrays the interior of the host rock that formed it. The agate really stands out on the beach as it glows in the sunlight against the other dull colored quartz, red jasper or darker basalt rock. They truly are semi precious jewels deposited on most beaches awaiting our discovery! more info on my web page pnwbeachcombing.com look on the "rocks" page with details about agates. Wherever you find rock bed deposits on river banks, lake beaches or the East Coast beaches you should find agates!
