September 24, 2024  /  1:34 PM

Original combinations of the parent rock - rhyolite with agate are found in the North Ankara region of Turkey. The rhyolite here has a peculiar finely arranged structure in section, which often resembles petrified wood.

The floating agate formations in the rock are very varied in colour, and together they make wonderful specimens. Agates in rhyolite will be exhibited at the accompanying exhibition of the November Minerals Brno 2024.
