Snakeskin Agate Stones Large Sizes
Snakeskin agate is a distinctive mineral from Oregon in the U.S. Some material can exhibit scale-like markings similar to a snake.
The "nobbly" appearance of snakeskin agate is correctly known as a botryoidal formation. These rounded nodules are clusters of crystals that form when minerals precipitate out of water.
Were the nodules to be cut open layers or concentric bands are likely to be visible. These are a typical characteristic of agate.
Although agate can be extremely colourful it commonly occurs in grey, white and black.
