LAGUNA AGATES SPECIMENS

Laguna agate is a highly prized variety of banded chalcedony from Mexico. It often forms in bands of red, pink, white, and/or scarlet hues, with occasional bands of brown and golden yellow chalcedony. The first documented finds of this agate occurred in the late 1940s and have since been extracted from several sites near Ojo Laguna, Chihuahua, Mexico. These agates are believed to be roughly 38 million years old.
