It's an IRIS Agate Geode!? Slabbing Dryhead Agates, Washington Agates, Lace Agates, and More!

In this one, we continue the rock cutting party! I have a good amount of rocks that I've been hanging onto that I have purchased or were given to me, so I thought what better time than now to cut some of these agates from around the world! We got into dryhead agate, Brazilian agates, thundereggs, mexican lace agates, an amazing piece of Hampton Butte green petrified wood, and some bizarre agate nodules from Washington that ended up hiding an incredible surprise, A big crystal filled vug AND iris banding!!! There wasn't a true dud in the lot! I hope you all enjoy this one, and look forward to more videos coming very soon!
New video is out today on the second channel, and it is one I am SO proud of! It is probably my favorite wood carving I have ever done! Definitely head over and check it out after this one! Link is down below!

    Your enthusiasm for every rock you cut, is so infectious! And i must say Thank You to Kyle at World of Rockhounds for the awesome thundereggs and geode nodules! that iris one is the obvious favorite but i agree with you that hampton butte green is fantastic! But they were all just kind of amazing! I love cutting rocks because you never know what's inside. Gorgeous beauty that only rocks and minerals can possess. Thank you for sharing Theo and have fun in Florida!

    I don't know if this might be something you'd be interested in doing on your other channel. But my mom had a geode when I was a kid that had little figures painted on apple seeds that were glued inside the geode to make it look like they were people spelunking inside a crystal cave I always thought that was really cute.

    Yup! Totally are! Had to look those up but that is definitely what they are. My friend who gave them to me said he didnt know what they were specifically, just that they were from an estate sale he acquired with a bunch of washington and oregon rocks so we both just assumed they were either from washington or oregon. But you are totally correct those are definitely beacon hill agates after looking them up. I had not heard of them before

    THE FINAL REGRET WILL BE THE WORST! If you do not diligently search to find-out if Jesus Christ was God in the flesh, and instead chose to believe the worldly lies, either because you were too lazy or too proud, the day will come in which you will have the greatest of all regrets, a day that will be too late for you to turn back and choose salvation, the forgiveness of your sins which Jesus the son of God offered you by dying on a cross. --DO NOT BE FOOLISH, ETERNAL TORMENT AWAITS EVERYONE THAT REJECTS THE MERCIFUL SALVATION FOUND IN JESUS CHRIST!!
