Some recently polished Holley Blue Agate from Sweethome, Oregon. This material is truly some of the most stunning blue/purple Agate in the world! No longer available for digging, this stuff is getting very difficult to find at this quality anymore. Due to a fatal accident that took place on the privately owned land, the original location has been covered up and closely watched since 1997, the timber company that now owns the land does not allow the public access anymore.
This is the same kind of story that has closed access to numerous different rockhounding sites across the board, so all of you rockhounds out there, be careful, fill in your holes when you are done digging, clean up after yourself(pack your trash out with you) and be respectful, responsible stewards for this amazing hobby!
