Sagenite agate is a formation of agate that contains acicular (needle-like) formations of fanning sagenite crystals encapsulated in a mass of pseudomorphic agate. This occurs when agate fills a cavity within rock that had prior formations of minerals, in this case the golden sagenite crystal clusters.
