[QUOTE="Elliott, post: 417133, member: 12547"] That is absolutely fascinating!! Thank you for such detailed information :o You are spot on, that is my area. Where I live sits in a purple zone, and 5 minutes up the road where I usually fossick and have found all of my nicest pieces, is in a yellow zone. I guess given the close proximity of both, what is found in one could likely be found in the other given the geology here and the way the waterways all wash from high up and run right down through my property. That map is really handy, I'm loving understanding the geological history of my area and what can be discovered within it - the things that people don't know are right under their noses!! Also I saw your post, that pendant looks stunning! I also saw your earlier post showing all of the pieces you collected and used too, that's one hell of a collection. I don't think I could have brought myself to cut and polish any of them haha, I'm so truly fascinated by the natural structures and growth of these minerals. I would probably be that one weird person that makes a pendant that just had a rugged untouched piece of agate sticking out of it hahaha Really really appreciate all of the information, thank you again [/QUOTE]
