5038 Montana Agate

$27.95

Agates are treasures for the common people. While kings, queens, and movie stars flaunt gold and diamonds, far more joy is extracted from the colorful, ever varying agates that are plucked glistening from lakeshores and streambanks. Agates are made of quartz crystals too small to be seen with the naked eye. Montana named the Montana agate and Yogo sapphire its state gemstones in 1969, thanks to the efforts of Montana’s Council of Rock and Mineral Clubs. Montana agates are most abundant along the Yellowstone River.
