I Cut Open 12 Beautiful Turkish AGATES & THUNDEREGGS From SRL Gemstone

[@SRLGemstone]

The secrets and surprises hidden within each stone have always been a great source of curiosity for me. It’s so exciting to watch them from here. Your idea to polish the banded agates was brilliant, you brought out all their beauty. Thank you so much for creating and sharing this wonderful video, Jason.

Holy cow Jason! Those were all gorgeous! My favorite, and it was tough to pick, was the last one. That stick agate was absolutely wild! Every mm of it was amazing! There wasn't a bad area on it. It just blew my mind! Such amazing rocks! All of them! I love SRL Gemstones! They have amazing rocks that they feature everyday! If not twice a day sometimes, on their channel! And they have gorgeous stuff! And at reasonable prices! I checked out their website the other days and there are a couple of them that have my name on them! Lol such amazing agates there in turkey! Thank you Jason, for sharing your beautiful agates and thundereggs!

[@RockhoundingLife]

Thanks Lisa! Yes they have some very nice material. Only one of the agates had significant fracturing. The agates from that area of the world are beautiful.

[@RobertRedman007]

Thanks for posting these. I love your videos. I have also loved rocks since I was a little kid.

[@RockhoundingLife]

26:30 I started chanting "Slab! Slab! Slab!" lol now to see what happens cuz wow that one is stunningly unique

[@JnVrockhounding]

SRL has some amazing agates and thundereggs. I am always watching her videos and leaving comments. So jealous they sent you those.

[@RockhoundingLife]

I was very inpressed with the quality. Hardly any fractures in the specinems.

[@Rockin_in_Kentucky]

Wow! Beautiful agates and thunder eggs!

[@JamesLovesRocks329]

I really liked the thunder egg with the agate inside. That was really special

[@katymitchell8200]

😮 I have loved rocks since I was a little girl. The first thunder egg gave the impression of two outlines of wolves. I think it was the second agate. I see 2 little ducks/fowl impregnated on each side, gorgeous. The partial cut with stick agate is beautiful. The last 2 was a great idea to polish they are spectacular. Thank you ❤ God creates so much beauty in our world ❤

[@cjgia4898]

Me too. I would bring home cool looking stones and sticks . Mom would get mad at me and throw them outside again, lol. We r both a little older and living together again. She still doesn’t like my sticks and stones, but they make me money now, 😮😂🎉✌🏻💗🙏🏼

[@RockhoundingLife]

So cool!

[@RobertRedman007]

Same here.

[@jonnsgirl]

oooh my gosh, this was such a fun video 😍!! The last 3 rocks were my favorite! The surface grinding on those last 2 agates was perfection, they look so good!! And the details in the 3rd last one, the sticks and sprays, what on Earth!? Amazing.

[@RockhoundingLife]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@sandmaker]

Beautiful rocks and cuts. I love hearing why you are cutting them where you do. The contour cuts were really good. I can't wait to see the finished products. 😷⚒

[@RockhoundingLife]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@raygay3375]

I hope you get some stick agates.

[@cassiacaleggari3761]

Super !! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@tinaanderson7283]

I wonder if a few of those are thunderegg cores that the host rock has worn off?

[@SissyMchill1]

Very nice 😊

[@RockhoundingLife]

Thanks 😊

[@SissyMchill1]

@@RockhoundingLife you’re most welcome 🤗

[@RobertRedman007]

That one looks like a dog!

[@danhughes6373]

The stick agate, if I had a favourite, which I don’t as the majority are A+, is the most interesting piece to me. What a bizarre natural formation! Any idea what conditions those form under, or is it just a big cosmic mystery? Cheers!

[@RockhoundingLife]

They are typically pseudomorphs. Meaning it was once another mimeral that had a crystal structure that looked like tubes and straws (usually a zeolite mineral). Then later slica rich water saturated the area and replaced the zeolite with chalcedony, making it harder, and in most cases, more colorful. The process is similar to wood petrification, only instead of wood it is another rock/mineral.

Süper türkiyeden alıyormusunuz ?

[@billywhitehorn6397]

can you hold the stone still? when you flick it...all we can see is the out of focus reflection

[@user-mf6wg9wo3y]

That one looks like a dogs head
