Montana Agate Specimens

Montana agate is usually a creamy light yellow to almost clear color with embedded moss structures in varying shades of brownish red to black.  Most of these Montana agates are found in gravel deposits from the Pleistocene age in  the area of the Yellowstone River and its tributaries.

I acquired this rather unique and beautiful piece recently in a bunch of assorted bulk agates that I bought.  It appears that someone just cut this agate nodule in half (sort of) and tossed it into a rock tumbler.   Approx. size: 90x46x35  Weight: 215.2 grams
