My daughter is now a seasoned Ol pro at rock hounding , and just last night on the way up to the lake, she makes a quick pit stop off the freeway and finds two full near palm sized beautiful agates, (slightly smaller than your new parallel /gravity banded bluish colored one) nonchalantly tosses them on the bed!

Good day AD and thank you for the new content post from up there in the northern part of the states! Got to wake up and watch a video before facing the day, which is much appreciated!👍 Really am enjoying watching others go through the process of exposing the hearts of these magnificent chunks of earth! Regardless of rock, mineral or fossil!!! 😁 Another idea...if I may would be to recommend getting a set of jewelers magnifying glasses, I know for me it really truly helped me see all the scratches at each level and have become dependent on them to get the best quality depth of finish to the stone but sometimes going to 30x magnification is just overdoing it.🤣 (it looks almost like there is an 1/8" of glass layered over the top of the specimen when done to 15000-30000 grit) Super spectacular and generous gifts from Mamalambo, great channel with lots of content to spend a whole day geeking out on....much like what you are doing with your channel sir with lots of content, kudos and good stuff all around, thanks for the hard work making it happen for us nerdy tubers.
