I find a lot of the orangish rock bottom middle.
Thought it might have been an agate but I no longer believe so.

Large number of quartz specimens and agates. Photo 2 shows a promising streak of gold but I will not validate that as it might be asbestoses. In the last photo the tube might be a fossil from the tube. Other items are some feldspars by the chunky dentotions and quartzite.
Common for that region. Well except the gold flash.

Which ones would be agates? That was my mission, go find agates, but there were so many pretty and interesting rocks out there. I really do have an addiction problem [emoji51]

Penny - 2nd picture kind of resembles an agate though I don't believe it is one. You want agates? Come to Minnesota, Lake Superior - just North of Duluth. You'll find a bunch!!!
