Blue Mountain agate

Origin: Blue Mountain Mine, Malheur, Oregon.

I couldn't find anything on the internet describing a Blue Mountain Agate so I contacted Dale Huett, the owner of the Blue Mountain Mine which mainly produces a beautiful Jasper for help. He told me that there are several locations near their mine that use to produce agates and his mine has been known to produce agates at times. He told me it was okay to call my slabs Blue Mountain Agate.

I have 6 slabs that I purchased 20 years ago at an estate sale, this listing is for 1 of the slabs. The Redondo Beach Gem Shop shop went out of business sometime back in the 60's or 70's and 20 years ago, the owners of the shop held an estate sale in Santa Rosa, Calif., that's where I purchased these rare slabs.

Characteristics: Beautiful mixed colors of blues, red, green, yellow and gold, cut 3 mm thin, I polished 1 side, first 3 pictures are the polished side, it's smooth and flat on both sides. Color separation lines look like fractures but they're not. You can't see the beauty in my pictures, in hand it's gorgeous. I've used back lighting in my pictures to show all the colors in the slab.

My pictures don't do the slab justice, they all have beautiful translucent vibrant colors, they probably would make super looking earrings if you wanted to cut it up, it would also look great as a sun catcher hanging in your window or as collector an AAA grade backlit specimen in your cabinet display.

There is only the small pits and a small fracture near one of pits, all pits can be seen in the pictures. There are no open fracture lines and all the lines have been naturally filled in. Most of the lines were caused by color separation.

If your interested in any of the other slabs please contact us.

Approx size : Irregular: 3 3/4" x 2 1/4" x 3.5 mm. Weight: 37.6 g

Combining items with 2 or more listings. If they will fit in a standard bubble package and the weight is less than 4 ounces I will ship them with no extra charges.

All of these slabs I have are unfinished except for this one which I polished on one side.

I use a full spectrum 45 w light bulb - photography photo CFL 5500K. It's a daylight balanced pure white light.

An 18 mm dime and 10 mm background squares in some pictures should help you with image sizing.
