Complete newbie at this but OMG is it addicting! I went rock hounding this past weekend and came across quartz clusters, agate, jasper and a really nice piece of sandstone. Can't wait to get a tumbler and start making my own pendants.

Huh...I think I found three agates whole cleaning up my front yard. These were originaly just picked randomly with a bunch of other rocks that my grandma picked way back in the day when she was working on her garden. Its preety fascinating and finally I now know what these are. I have two white ones and one that looked like an ordinary stone until you shine it at a light. Thank you for the information :)

I feel just like you. I’ve liked rocks since I was like 1. It’s like I inherited a huge rock collection from my younger self. I’ve always collected rocks on trips. A few months back I looked up “how to find quartz.” Then it started recommending rockhounding to me and it rolled from there.

I read about how to make an industrial tumbler out of a rear axle of a big semi truck with the rims and tires in place. You want to cut an opening in the highest part of the rim to load rocks. The article said a cover is not needed but I always thought if I was going to do one I would have a hinged door sealed with inner tube rubber. The idea is to set up a motor geared down so the tires rotates slowly and all the rocks stay in the lowest part of the tire at all times tumbling over each other. Each tire can hold about 100 lbs of rocks and you have 4 tires going at all times each one with a different grit. Always use same tire for the same grit. You rotate the rocks once a week and you have a 100 lbs of polished tumbled stones each week. I have been wondering if you could use quartz sand as grit for the first stage to do the rough rounding off? I am posting this on all videos about rock hounding to spread the idea, if this is you channel and you do not like that let me know. The fact that the tumbling will all take place in a rubber tire should help keep the noise down. The rocks should never touch the rim. I have suggested to people that they make a sound proof shed just big enough to be practical so the noise will be minimized. Plus the rubber in a tire is thick and should absorb a lot of the noise. Also you should have a small fan on the motor to keep it cool. A high quality motor will be a must as it will run 24 hours a day. I am no expert but with the proper gearing the motor should not be under too much stress. I would sell the tumbled stones. Once tumbled, you grade them by quality and type. Some would be really valuable. I bet you could average $10 usd per pound with just good found material and more if you have high grade material. Definitely not for the weekend rock hound but if you sell stones or want to, what a cheap way to start. You could tumble other people's rocks for a fee or shares too. You could make one with car tires for a smaller scale operation. There has to be a lot of people with a 30 year in the making, 3 ton pile of rocks out behind their house. With this they could see results from all that collecting.

I was thinking the same thing, I've often picked up, marveled, wondered why it looked the way it did (waxy), why it was see through (those that were), questioned whether or not it was actually a rock at times and eventually discarded each of these over the years. May still have one or two around somewhere. Sigh, if only I'd known.

HI, nice info bout agate. I am a Geologist. I want to point to you that one of your agates shown here is of the shape of a Canine tooth. SOme rocks are formed by replacement of existing minerals. Like wood opal. Similarly calciam carbonate of fossil bones and tooths is sometimes replaced by silica atom by atom on a geological time span. Just check whetheer that piece wwhich is third from left at the bottom at 0.04 time of your video is a replaced silicified fossil tooth. Just my guess.

Great info! Thank you very much. Question: At the beginning you aligned the agates from right to left with regards to the "quality" of the agate, and at the end you said that the translucent material in the last agate didn't have any lines in it. Do you mean visible lines, because an agate should have concentric lines to qualify as being one.

agate is a rock, and rocks are general classification of mineral composition and crystal structure of minerals. It’s not an exact science, and this is a rock hounding classification more than a scientific one. Moss agate for example doesn’t always have banding, but is considered agate. I hope this helps with your question.

The problem is that it looks absolutely opaque to me, its just a flat black stone. I've tried to shine a light through it, there's absolutely none passing through. I would appreciate your help to know ways to check for the authenticity of the stone (if it really is a stone). Thanks in advance

if something is advertised as agate, chances are it is as advertised. Its a fairly common stone and isn't really worth enough to put a fake out there. If it is black and took a very nice polish and it scratches glass its probably agate

Fishermanjake AK, your not gonna believe something for agates. Days ago on Friday at school, drama class 1st period, my friend Daniel was showing me some rocks he normally had from home and soon, I saw a tumbled stone that he had me keep was something surprising, It was like a combination of the silica bands of Agate and the violet purple, light purple and white like the traditional colors of Amethyst. I quickly thought up and decided a new name for this tumbled stone that is like a combination of Agate and Amethyst. I have called it, "Agathyst" It sounded like the coolest mineral name idea I created. My friend English teacher Mrs. Padget I like spending time with was pretty surprised about it and thought I could have that idea in the dictionary of rocks, minerals, and fossils. Today while 2 days ago, I was learning a lot more about how agate, quartz, and silica work. So when I saw your video today, I was thinking and wondering if you know well about this "Agathyst" I've been talking about?

+Nick K Agate classification is like other classifications of rocks, they vary in names for slight differences in the rock. Chalcedony is very similar to agate and has very similar properties. One could argue that it is a type of agate because they are both microcrystalline quarts. The same is true with your amethyst. Amethyst usually refers to the large purple crystals of quartz, however the microcrystalline matrix could be referred to purple agate or amethyst. Really rocks are just a classification based on mineral composition and formation, while minerals are a naturally occurring crystal structure of a specific chemical composition.

Thanks for the info and some clues. Maybe someday it might be true that this "Agathyst" that I'm so curious and excited thinking about could become a true thing like having my name idea in the mineral dictionary or who know what would happen. On the show Prospectors from the Weather Channel. Some episodes about a miner Rich Fretterd and some others being in the Cripple Creak Mines in Colorado, USA, They find mysterious mixed mineral specimens made of 3 things. Purple Fluorite, Barite, and some quartz, and the specimens looks similar to kyanite or scolcite by the way the crystal forms look. They didn't think of a name for that. I thought something like maybe Fluorbarartz or who knows. Thank you for your response.

No no no! You must hold the Agate up to the light whether it be the Sun or a lamp or any sort of light if it is a Agate you will be able to see through the stone. In opaque manner. Some are smooth some are rough all will be opaque, and show various colors as well as quartz only quartz is less opaque

CAUTION---AGATE is the only variety of CHALCEDONY which is banded.

What about moss agate? Moss agate isn’t banded. Anyhow, I made the video for the beginner, Most people don’t know what chalchedony is. To most, agate is an easier understanding of many forms of Chalcedony. It’s kind of like calling diorite granite. To a geologist it matters, to someone installing countertops it doesn’t. Classifying rocks is kind of an art as they are so varied and agate is an acceptable classification of the rocks I showed in the video.
