Rare - Stalactite Agate Egg - Exclusive Egg with agate druse - Height: 485 mm - Width: 185 mm- 11200 g

[ translate ]

A beautiful Brazilian Agate of the first selection, characterized by an external "wall" with spotted coffee brown colors, with a shiny surface. The internal part of the geode is occupied by a stalactite formation with a surface rich in crystals.
Stalactite agate is formed when mineralized solutions infiltrate the fractures of the geode rock, and begin to deposit minerals on the surface of the cavity walls. Over time, the solutions accumulate and create stalactites with agate crystals inside.
The surface of the stalactites are covered with quartz microcrystals intercalated with other minerals.
