Those prairie agates are wonderful! I know how strange they are and you just can't tell what you will find, but they are such amazing agates! And good luck with the fairburn hunt! They are so rare that it's so hard to find one! But I wish you great luck on future hunts! But the agates you found were amazing! And your show is quickly coming up! Good luck at your show and I know you will do so well! You are amazing and I'm sure the meet and greet will be packed! So many people want to meet you! You are awesome! Thanks Theo, for the wonderful look at prairie agates!
I love The Prairie! ♡ We have a spot here that is locally called, The Badlands. People like to 4x and dirt bike there. Its one of my favorite places to rock hunt! ♡
I had to go look up Fairburn agates, I can see why you are lusting after them! Wow, so beautiful and unique. Hope you eventually get some cut worthy specimens to show us.
Hi there Theo Kellison, cool video and awesome finds. Can you please define a Fairburn Agate, is it a color and banding combo? Or is it more a location? Thank you for taking us along on your hunt.
I think the smaller (seam) agates would make beautiful dangle earrings, slabbed thin and just polished with silver hooks. I don't ever see any, only rings and pendants.
Jaspers and Agates are all chalcedony. Jasper is opaque to somewhat translucent. Agate, in lapidary terms, is supposed to mean banded, translucent chalcedony, but with lapidary terms, people can kinda call stuff whatever they want. I just use agate to mean any translucent chalcedony, it's easier to say. Mineralogical terms can overlap with lapidary terms, which is where a lot of confusion happens.
BTW we’re Disabled Seniors and OUR SON 47yr old Tetraplegic. Rock hounding those types of Terrains are just not recommended for us. We have checked out your store location. So based on our Fix Income we really have to Budget. However Your videos have been TRULY A BLESSING. You are VERY TALENTED AND SKILLFUL. I noticed that you Facet and are Very good. I want to get into FaceTing and maybe one Day I be HALF AS GOOD AS YOU YOUNG SIR. What type of FaceTing Machine do you use? How would you rate those FaceTing Machines that are being Sold by Vevor? MANY BLESSINGS BE UPON YOU AND YOUR FAMILY!!!
I hunt the Fraser river up in British Columbia Canada, find a lot of different types of agates jasper petrified wood, never any really large specimens of pure agate larger than say hard baseball just wondering why spit balling ideas. I think river to violent. “Agate” clear and or with banding/translucent lol
Who else gasped when you caught sight of the sutures in the background ? Lol
You should take the agate scrap and do a resin project with the translucent pieces and make a lamp!
I wish you could make longer videos. I love watching them. Thank you for sharing with us.
Cool video Theo !! Your skills are so good that it’s just a matter of time before you find a killer Fairburn.😎😎

Would love to take you to a couple spots next time your over here!
Haven't hounded SD much, but some great material in that area, you both did pretty good 👍
Are you rebuilding some Ammonites?
I have seen your video on you making those agate necklaces. They're very beautiful! ❤️❤️
Were you hunting at the Railroad buttes?
Next Time I come to Rapid can I come hunting with you?
We found agates in San Francisco, but they spell it different.

I thought Alexis would have gotten the heart shaped ❤ iris agate. That would have been my pick. Although hers probably has the best 🌈.
You did make the heart iris agate a pendant didn't you? It was spectacular
